Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sheffield

Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

SNAP participation runs 31.7% against 15.2% nationally. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 33.9% against 17.8% nationally. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0.

Average gross rent is $1,246, 23% below the Charlotte average. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Court records carry 1,779 eviction filings across 4 observed years. The worst year on record was 2014, when 45.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 48.0% of renter households face a filing.
