Bingham Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate
2 census tracts · pop 7,077 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 4.6–5.5
Bingham Heights is a 2-tract neighborhood of Asheville, NC and houses 7,077 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Asheville baseline of 31.7%, 62% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. At $1,106 a month, rents sit 21% under what the rest of Asheville commands.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 283 evictions logged in this tract. The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 10.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 5.9% in 2013, is well off that peak.
That places it #11 of 18 neighborhoods in Asheville. For a like-for-like read, Wind Oaks Town Homes and Swannanoa Hills score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.9 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $52,490.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
