Reedy Creek maps to a single census tract in Charlotte, NC and houses 3,523 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 44% against 29.9% citywide, putting Reedy Creek 14.5% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.1/10.
Court records for this tract carry 139 eviction filings. Average gross rent is $1,871, 16% above the Charlotte average of $1,612.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 25.0% of renter households. That places it #93 of 111 neighborhoods in Charlotte. Judgments average 12.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Barclay Downs and Westmoreland. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
