Downing Village maps to a single census tract in Morrisville, NC, population 7,344. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
The severe-burden share is 11%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10.
25% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, slightly above the Morrisville rate of 21.6%. 5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
That places it #3 of 5 neighborhoods in Morrisville. 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.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Providence Place and McCrimmon at the Park. Against average income of $148,904, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,828, close to the Morrisville average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
