Whitney Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,324 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Whitney Village is a one-tract neighborhood of Holly Springs, NC and houses 5,324 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.9/10, in the Lower tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Holly Springs rate of 29.7%.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.4/10. At $1,459 a month, rents sit 28% under what the rest of Holly Springs commands.

Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 39 evictions logged in this tract.

The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 3.9% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 9.8% of adults, 8.0 points below the national rate.

Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Holly Springs, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 0.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Sunset Park and Sunset Park at Sunset Ridge.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.9/10 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.
