Crosswinds maps to a single census tract in Raleigh, NC and houses 5,096 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 30.9% citywide, putting Crosswinds 11.3% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.1/10.
