Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 4,898 eviction filings.
Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 31.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 17.1% in 2018, is well off that peak.
That places it #10 of 13 neighborhoods in Burlington. The closest comparables inside the same city are Pinewood Forest and Cedar Crest. Average gross rent runs $1,046, close to the Burlington average.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $56,883. 64% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
