Ridgeview spans 2 census tracts of Charlotte, NC and houses 10,154 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Charlotte baseline of 29.9%, 44% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10. This is a renter market: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
The severe-burden share is 10%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. That places it #74 of 111 neighborhoods in Charlotte.
For a like-for-like read, Cherry and Carmel score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Average gross rent runs $1,558, close to the Charlotte average. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $71,065.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
