Mountain View Eviction Risk: Lower

Mountain View is a one-tract neighborhood of Royal Pines, NC and houses 7,041 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Royal Pines rate of 24.7%. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

At $1,332 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Royal Pines commands. Court records for this tract carry 616 eviction filings.

SNAP participation is 5.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 7.8% of adults, 10.0 points below the national rate.

The severe-burden share is 8%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 10.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 11.5% in 2013 against a 10.4% peak.

Only 24% 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. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
