Analysis
What drives eviction risk in York
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 7.8/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from York, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the York County average of 5.1 and above the South Carolina statewide average of 5.5. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 120 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 22.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 22.5% of renter households in 2012.
In CDC survey modeling, about 18.0% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 12.1% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
