Crest At Brier Creek Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,731 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Crest At Brier Creek maps to a single census tract in Raleigh, NC and houses 3,731 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.9/10, Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

70% 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. Against a Raleigh baseline of 30.9%, 39% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

Court records for this tract carry 273 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 13.7% of renter households.

That places it #65 of 107 neighborhoods in Raleigh. Judgments average 4.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Falls River and Windsor Ridge.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,585, close to the Raleigh average.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $90,000.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
