Wilmore Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,331 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 4.1–4.1

Wilmore maps to a single census tract in Charlotte, NC and houses 2,331 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.1/10, in the Moderate tier. This is a renter market: 95% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Cost burden runs 42% against 29.9% citywide, putting Wilmore 12.5% over its own city. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2/10.

15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation is 3.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

4.0% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Average gross rent is $1,759, 9% above the Charlotte average of $1,612. That places it #62 of 111 neighborhoods in Charlotte.

For a like-for-like read, Colvard Park and Oakdale score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $74,296.

One tract means one number: 4.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
