Caleb's Creek Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,067 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Caleb's Creek maps to a single census tract in Kernersville, NC, population 4,067. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 41% against 28.6% citywide, putting Caleb's Creek 12.7% over its own city.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,412, 30% above the Kernersville average of $1,082. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

The voucher gap is 21.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. 17% 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 filing record is not thin: 21 evictions logged in this tract. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10.

The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 4.6% of renter households. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Kernersville, it ranks #5 by risk, the lower third.

Judgments average 1.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Copperfield and Wynnfield Court.

One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
