Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Crestgate

At $1,538 a month, rents run 62% over what the rest of Easley commands. 33% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.3/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10.

SNAP participation runs 4.0% against 15.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 17.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 1.0 points below the Pickens County average of 4.0.

Food insecurity runs 9.1% against 17.8% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 6% 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 2.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
