Tanglewild Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,380 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Tanglewild maps to a single census tract in Raleigh, NC, population 5,380. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.6/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

Court records for this tract carry 271 eviction filings. SNAP participation is 5.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 7.3% of adults, 10.5 points below the national rate.

27% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, marginally below the Raleigh rate of 30.9%. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 20.2% of renter households. That places it #75 of 107 neighborhoods in Raleigh.

Judgments average 2.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Brandermill and Triple Creek at Valley Stream.

Against average income of $111,566, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,588, close to the Raleigh average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
