Hendersonville Eviction Risk: Moderate

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $52,117, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Against the Henderson County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.6 points. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10.

Average gross rent is $1,505, 13% above the Hendersonville average. Nationally it ranks #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter. 61% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
