1 census tracts · pop 3,470 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3.5–3.5

Everett & Smith Land maps to a single census tract in Raleigh, NC and houses 3,470 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

Court records for this tract carry 51 eviction filings. Disability prevalence reaches 18.8% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

3.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. 34% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, a little above the Raleigh rate of 30.9%. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 6.3% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.9% in 2016, is well off that peak. Average gross rent is $1,697, 8% above the Raleigh average of $1,572.

One tract means one number: 3.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
