Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Riviera

Average gross rent is $2,119, 31% above the Charlotte average. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10. The voucher gap is 16.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

The filing record is not thin: 121 evictions over 4 years of observation. Against Mecklenburg County at 45.3%, 41% of renters here are cost-burdened. Filings peaked in 2005 at 8.2% of renter households.

In a typical year about 9.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
