Bridgeton Eviction Risk: Moderate

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.6/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.1/10. Cost burden runs 31% here against 41.4% across Craven County.

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 1.3 points above the Craven County average of 4.2. Average gross rent is $805, 20% below the Bridgeton average.

The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Court records carry 46 eviction filings across 2 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 4.9% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.7% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #23,808 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $58,786, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
