The Cove Eviction Risk: Lower , Burlington

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,316, 25% above the Burlington average.

9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Food insecurity runs 9.7% against 17.8% nationally.

Against the Alamance County average of 3.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Filings peaked in 2014 at 10.7% of renter households. In a typical year about 7.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 4.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

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.
