Ivory Hills Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,177 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Ivory Hills maps to a single census tract in Cary, NC and houses 3,177 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 47%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Cost burden runs 47% against 24.9% citywide, putting Ivory Hills 22.0% over its own city. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 2 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 18.2% of renter households. 4.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Among the 39 mapped neighborhoods of Cary, it ranks #11 by risk, the upper third.

Judgments average 9.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 4% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Poverty sits at 1%, 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. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
