Taberna maps to a single census tract in New Bern, NC, population 6,430. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $1,582, 46% above the New Bern average of $1,081.
28% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.7/10.
36% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the New Bern rate of 28.7%. The voucher gap is 20.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.1/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 5.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of New Bern, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. Only 8% 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.
Against average income of $96,991, annual rent is only 20%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
