Montgomery is among the Most Evicting Cities in The U.S.

     As I've reported before here on www.timlennox.com, the city of Montgomery, ranks 27th in the U.S. for evictions...now an even more important statistic in this Covid 19 Era, with bankruptcy in the air and jobs gone!

The ranking come from the Eviction Lab website, though the numbers are from 2016:


Montgomery AL

Eviction Rate 5.82%

There were 2,074 evictions in Montgomery in 2016. That amounts to 5.68 households evicted every day. 5.82 in 100 renter homes are evicted each year.

That's the highest eviction rate of any of Alabama's large cities, even before the 2020 recession!


Montgomery 5.83
Mobile 3.66
Huntsville 1.31
Birmingham 0.1

The website also lists the small and medium cities by eviction rate and number.
Prattville?
5th Highest mid-sized city in the state.

Prattville AL

Eviction Rate 2.41% View in Map
There were 104 evictions in Prattville in 2016. That amounts to 0.28 households evicted every day. 2.41 in 100 renter homes are evicted each year.

The Eviction Lab has been promising for years to list the biggest evictors in each city. 

That list already exists for New York City HERE.
