Analysis

What drives eviction risk in The cottages at Wilbur Street

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.3/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10. The poverty rate is 18%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $65,368, annual rent is just 17%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Pickens County average of 4.0 closely.

Average gross rent is $941, close to the Easley average.

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