Akins Place is a one-tract neighborhood of Fuquay-Varina, NC and houses 2,822 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4/10, in the Moderate tier. 52% 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.
Against a Fuquay-Varina baseline of 27.5%, 60% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10.
Court records for this tract carry 8 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 5.8% of renter households.
At $1,523 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Fuquay-Varina commands. That places it #4 of 11 neighborhoods in Fuquay-Varina.
Judgments average 3.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 13% 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.
For a like-for-like read, Rowland Pond and Stewart Manor score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
