University Suites Eviction Risk: Moderate
2 census tracts · pop 6,792 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4
University Suites takes in 2 census tracts of Wilmington, NC and houses 6,792 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Wilmington rate of 33.7%.
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average household income of $42,266 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 7.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 4,373 evictions logged in this tract.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. The worst year on record was 2008, when filings touched 30.2% of renter households.
At $1,260 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Wilmington commands. The most recent observed rate, 11.6% in 2018, is well off that peak.
For a like-for-like read, Seahawk Village and Shinnwood West score within a fraction of it. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
