Laurel Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,919 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Laurel Village maps to a single census tract in High Point, NC and houses 5,919 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 40% against 28.0% citywide, putting Laurel Village 11.9% over its own city.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 30.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.1/10. 12% 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. Court records for this tract carry 113 eviction filings.

The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 35.8% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,219, 9% above the High Point average of $1,116.

That places it #4 of 10 neighborhoods in High Point. Judgments average 8.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
