Athens Eviction Risk: Lower

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 voucher gap is 52.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. At $1,528 a month, rents run 37% over what the rest of Athens commands.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.3/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.6/10. It sits 0.7 points below the Henderson County average of 3.7.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9/10.

Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 42% of renters. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $82,595. 46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
