Sunset Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Holly Springs, NC and houses 2,880 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10.
Cost burden runs 39% against 29.7% citywide, putting Sunset Park 9.2% over its own city. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10.
Severe burden reaches 19%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. At $1,701 a month, rents sit 16% under what the rest of Holly Springs commands.
SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.7% of adults, 9.1 points below the national rate. Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Holly Springs, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third.
Only 26% 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, Sunset Park at Sunset Ridge and Sunset Ridge North score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $115,375, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
