Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Shallotte
What moves this score most is rent-control risk at 8.7/10. 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 Shallotte, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Brunswick County average of 4.9 and below the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 200 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 11.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 15.4% of renter households in 2010.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 45th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
