Linwood Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Severe burden reaches 13%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 751 evictions logged in this tract. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.9/10.

At $1,200 a month, rents sit 14% under what the rest of Asheville commands. SNAP participation is 23.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2007, when filings touched 10.0% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 7.3% in 2013 against a 10.0% peak. Among the 18 mapped neighborhoods of Asheville, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, River Arts District and Deaver View score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $59,024.

One tract means one number: 5.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
