Stonegate Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,906 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.8/10 · range 3.8–3.8

Stonegate maps to a single census tract in Shelby, NC and houses 3,906 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.2/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Against a Shelby baseline of 31.5%, 28% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

That places it #5 of 7 neighborhoods in Shelby. For a like-for-like read, Carriage Run and Westwood Heights score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $64,167, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.

Average gross rent runs $941, close to the Shelby average. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
