Brooklyn Hills Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,447 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.4/10 · range 4.4–4.4

Brooklyn Hills is a one-tract neighborhood of Raleigh, NC, population 3,447. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Raleigh rate of 30.9%.

Severe burden reaches 32%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. 68% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.4/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 44 evictions logged in this tract.

SNAP participation is 4.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 1.9% of renter households.

At $1,671 a month, rents sit 6% over what the rest of Raleigh commands. That places it #57 of 107 neighborhoods in Raleigh.

Judgments average 0.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Berkeley Spring Senior Rental Housing and Mordecai Village score within a fraction of it.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $93,225.

One tract means one number: 4.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
