Clinton Hills Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,424 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10 · range 5.3–5.3

Clinton Hills maps to a single census tract in Greensboro, NC, population 3,424. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. SNAP participation is 38.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Cost burden runs 41% against 32.4% citywide, putting Clinton Hills 8.4% over its own city. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Disability prevalence reaches 46.2% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

The filing record is not thin: 595 evictions logged in this tract. Average gross rent is $987, 16% below the Greensboro average of $1,172. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 25.6% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 12.1% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 35 neighborhoods in Greensboro.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $50,768.

57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
