Brandermill is a one-tract neighborhood of Raleigh, NC and houses 3,481 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.6/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Raleigh rate of 30.9%.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2/10.
The severe-burden share is 17%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
The filing record is not thin: 99 evictions logged in this tract. SNAP participation is 4.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. At $1,375 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of Raleigh commands. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 16.5% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 13.8% in 2016 against a 16.5% peak. Among the 107 mapped neighborhoods of Raleigh, it ranks #75 by risk, the lower third.
At 12% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The closest comparables inside the same city are Triple Creek at Valley Stream and Seville at Brier Creek: Designer II Collection.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
