· range 3.9–5.3
Pomona is a 4-tract neighborhood of Greensboro, NC, population 14,194. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 52% against 32.4% citywide, putting Pomona 19.1% over its own city.
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. This is a renter market: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The severe-burden share is 22%. 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 27%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3.9 to 5.3. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.
Court records carry 2,148 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $995, 15% below the Greensboro average of $1,172. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 32.2% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 26.4% in 2016 against a 32.2% peak. That places it #17 of 35 neighborhoods in Greensboro. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.8/10, 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 $51,575.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
