Midway Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Jacksonville, NC, population 1,166. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 49%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Jacksonville rate of 32.6%. This is a renter market: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Annualized rent equals 48% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.
The voucher gap is 12.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Jacksonville, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Camp Johnson and Camp Geiger.
Average gross rent runs $1,295, close to the Jacksonville average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
