A. L. Spaugh is a one-tract neighborhood of Clayton, NC and houses 4,103 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.8/10, placing it in the Lower tier. At $1,043 a month, rents sit 37% under what the rest of Clayton commands.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.
Cost burden runs 37% against 31.3% citywide, putting A. L. Spaugh 5.6% over its own city. 13% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
The filing record is not thin: 51 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 14.7% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 17.5% in 2016 against a 14.7% peak. Only 9% 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. Against average income of $115,893, annual rent is only 11%, a wide affordability cushion.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
