Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Cedar Crest
The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at $1/10. 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 Burlington eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Alamance County average of 5.2 and below the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
In CDC survey modeling, about 11.4% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 6.9% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 891 eviction filings here over 17 tracked years, with about 15.5% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 26.0% of renter households in 2006.
