Blakeney Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,922 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Blakeney maps to a single census tract in Charlotte, NC, population 4,922. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 29% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

At $2,007 a month, rents sit 25% over what the rest of Charlotte commands. Disability prevalence reaches 18.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The voucher gap is 10.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Among the 111 mapped neighborhoods of Charlotte, it ranks #93 by risk, the lower third. Against average income of $162,981, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
