1 census tracts · pop 3,804 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Allison Ferry is a one-tract neighborhood of Huntersville, NC and houses 3,804 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 61% against 27.7% citywide, putting Allison Ferry 33.4% over its own city.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10.

The voucher gap is 16.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. At $2,119 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Huntersville commands. SNAP participation is 4.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 7.5% of adults, 10.3 points below the national rate. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Huntersville, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third. At 10% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Hicks Crossroads and Skybrook score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $146,728, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
