Spout Springs Eviction Risk: Lower

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Spout Springs, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Harnett County average of 5.2 and in line with the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,085 eviction filings here over 17 tracked years, with about 12.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 18.4% of renter households in 2007.

The tract is racially mixed and ranks around the 30th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
