Greenville takes in 3 census tracts of Charlotte, NC, population 5,377. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Charlotte baseline of 29.9%, 58% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.3/10. Average gross rent is $1,100, 32% below the Charlotte average of $1,612.
The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.2 to 5.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Court records carry 1,618 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 109.2% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 18.9% in 2016, is well off that peak.
That places it #42 of 111 neighborhoods in Charlotte. For a like-for-like read, The Murray and Anthem score within a fraction of it.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $53,859. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
