Wilson Eviction Risk: Lower

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.2/10.

SNAP participation runs 25.1% against 15.2% nationally. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. At $1,112 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of Wilson commands.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 8.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 43% of renters. It tracks the Wilson County average of 4.3 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
