Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Graham

Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.

The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.8/10.

SNAP participation runs 30.9% against 15.2% nationally. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. It sits 1.7 points above the Alamance County average of 3.7.

Food insecurity runs 32.0% against 17.8% nationally. Average gross rent is $859, 20% below the Graham average.

Court records carry 3,638 eviction filings across 17 observed years.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
