1 census tracts · pop 6,833 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3.1–3.1

Sedgefield Twelve is a one-tract neighborhood of Greensboro, NC, population 6,833. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 18.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $1,367, 17% above the Greensboro average of $1,172. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.8/10.

Court records for this tract carry 416 eviction filings. Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. 36% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, slightly above the Greensboro rate of 32.4%.

Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 19.6% of renter households. SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.7% of adults, 8.1 points below the national rate.

The most recent observed rate, 10.4% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 35 mapped neighborhoods of Greensboro, it ranks #30 by risk, the lower third.

One tract means one number: 3.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
