Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Akins Place

The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 5.7/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Fuquay-Varina eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Wake County average of 5.3 and above the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 42nd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 8 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 4.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.8% of renter households in 2016.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
