Davis Lake Eviction Risk: Lower
2 census tracts · pop 8,279 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3–4.3
Davis Lake is a 2-tract neighborhood of Charlotte, NC and houses 8,279 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.1/10.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 22%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.3, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Cost burden runs 35% against 29.9% citywide, putting Davis Lake 5.5% over its own city. Court records carry 1,374 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.8/10.
At $1,411 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Charlotte commands. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 23.5% of renter households. Among the 111 mapped neighborhoods of Charlotte, it ranks #78 by risk, the lower third.
Judgments average 4.4% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are South End and Highland Creek. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
