The Lakes at Brunswick Forest Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 8,868 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

The Lakes at Brunswick Forest is a one-tract neighborhood of Leland, NC and houses 8,868 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Against a Leland baseline of 35.6%, about half of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The voucher gap is 42.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 9.3/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.2/10. The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. 3.5% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent runs $1,828, close to the Leland average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $100,625.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
