Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Walkertown

The voucher gap is 41.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. On the high side, supply constraint reads 9.1/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $61,601 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against Forsyth County at 41.1%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,644, 19% above the Walkertown average.

It sits 1.1 points above the Forsyth County average of 3.9. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 196 filings here across 4 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2005 at 12.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 12.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
