The Province Eviction Risk: Elevated , Greenville

The poverty rate is 48%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10. 96% 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. SNAP participation runs 35.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.4/10. Set annual rent against average income of $30,313 and the ratio lands at 37%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity runs 36.0% against 17.8% nationally.

It sits 1.8 points above the Pitt County average of 5.4. Against Pitt County at 39.3%, 43% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the national scale it lands near the 86th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 8.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 3.2 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
