Swansea Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs 24% here against 37.2% across Lexington County. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.1/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 413 filings here across 5 tracked years. At $953 a month, rents run 11% over what the rest of Swansea commands.

Against the Lexington County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. The worst year on record was 2011, when 34.4% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 28.6% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 51st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Social vulnerability reads 7.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $55,742.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
