Squire Ridge Eviction Risk: Moderate

Squire Ridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Fuquay-Varina, NC and houses 5,337 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.2/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 43%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Fuquay-Varina rate of 27.5%. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.7/10.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. That places it #2 of 11 neighborhoods in Fuquay-Varina. Only 20% 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.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Rowland Pond and Akins Place. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,714, close to the Fuquay-Varina average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $89,032.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
