Robert Winston Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,786 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Robert Winston is a one-tract neighborhood of Raleigh, NC and houses 3,786 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $2,208, 40% above the Raleigh average of $1,572.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 25.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. 32% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

2.6% 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. The filing record is not thin: 2 evictions logged in this tract.

Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 7.5/10. The severe-burden share is 11%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. 3.8% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 2.4% of renter households. Among the 107 mapped neighborhoods of Raleigh, it ranks #89 by risk, the lower third. Judgments average 1.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, Briarcliff and Lost Valley score within a fraction of it.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
