Dew Field maps to a single census tract in Wilson, NC and houses 3,167 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10.
30% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10.
SNAP participation is 6.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.5% of adults, 9.3 points below the national rate. At $1,049 a month, rents sit 8% over what the rest of Wilson commands.
That places it #9 of 12 neighborhoods in Wilson. At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
For a like-for-like read, Oak Crest and Brookside Manor score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 13% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
