Shamrock Terrace is a 2-tract neighborhood of Winterville, NC and houses 9,631 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Against a Winterville baseline of 37.2%, 20% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The voucher gap is 31.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. On the high side is supply constraint at 7.6/10. The filing record is not thin: 552 evictions logged in this tract.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 11.1% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 7.2% in 2018 against a 11.1% peak. At $1,441 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Winterville commands.
Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
