S H Chandler Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 6,329 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

S H Chandler is a one-tract neighborhood of Durham, NC, population 6,329. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.4/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.8/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

36% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Durham rate of 29.4%. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

Average gross rent is $1,196, 21% below the Durham average of $1,508. That places it #38 of 58 neighborhoods in Durham. Only 18% 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 $86,199, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.4/10 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.
