Clayton Eviction Risk: Lower

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. At $1,137 a month, rents run 32% under what the rest of Clayton commands.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.3/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Johnston County average of 4.1.

11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $93,088, annual rent is just 15%.

Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
