Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Westerly Hill
91% 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. Food insecurity runs 38.4% against 17.8% nationally.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.4/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Average gross rent is $1,159, 28% below the Charlotte average.
Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Against the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.6/10. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter.
