Briarcliff takes in 2 census tracts of Charlotte, NC, population 9,626. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
37% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Charlotte rate of 29.9%. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Filings are well documented here: 65 across 2 observed tracts.
At $1,858 a month, rents sit 15% over what the rest of Charlotte commands. Disability prevalence reaches 19.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.
The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 4.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2016, is well off that peak.
Among the 111 mapped neighborhoods of Charlotte, it ranks #93 by risk, the lower third. At 9% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Dilworth Historic District and Mallard. Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
