Jefferson Oaks Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,087 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Jefferson Oaks is a one-tract neighborhood of Rural Hall, NC and houses 4,087 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 28.0% citywide, putting Jefferson Oaks 20.9% over its own city.

Severe burden reaches 35%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 215 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 22.0% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,048, 8% above the Rural Hall average of $967. Recent filings have not receded much: 16.7% in 2012 against a 22.0% peak.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $60,208.

30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
