Dilworth Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Cost burden runs about one in five against 29.9% citywide, putting Dilworth Historic District 8.5% under its own city. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 42 evictions logged in this tract. 3.2% 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.

At $1,837 a month, rents sit 14% over what the rest of Charlotte commands. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 5.2% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #93 of 111 neighborhoods in Charlotte. The closest comparables inside the same city are Mallard and Barclay Downs.

Against average income of $162,325, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

The 3 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
