Burton Oaks is a one-tract neighborhood of High Point, NC, population 3,386. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 67%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs 86% against 28.0% citywide, putting Burton Oaks 58.4% over its own city. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
The voucher gap is 24.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
Court records for this tract carry 7 eviction filings. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10.
The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 4.0% of renter households. SNAP participation is 7.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 9.8% of adults, 8.0 points below the national rate. That places it #4 of 10 neighborhoods in High Point. Judgments average 4.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Southern Oak Chase and St. Charles Place score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 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.
