Embassy East Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 5,375 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.2/10 · range 3.6–4.9

Embassy East takes in 2 census tracts of Charlotte, NC, population 5,375. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 47% against 29.9% citywide, putting Embassy East 16.9% over its own city.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 16%. 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 3.6 to 4.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10.

Court records carry 169 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. At $1,802 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of Charlotte commands. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 20.6% of renter households.

Among the 111 mapped neighborhoods of Charlotte, it ranks #60 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 5.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $78,893.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
