Coventry is a 3-tract neighborhood of Winston-Salem, NC, population 12,056. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.2/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 29% of renter households. Court records carry 541 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts.
11% 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. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 7.7% of adults, 10.1 points below the national rate. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 34.9% of renter households.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 7.3% in 2012, is well off that peak. At $1,001 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Winston-Salem commands.
That places it #18 of 26 neighborhoods in Winston-Salem. Against average income of $91,370, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
