Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Washington Place

Cost burden runs 62% here against 40.7% across Wilson County. Set annual rent against average income of $14,991 and the ratio lands at 57%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10.

Housing insecurity runs 40.3% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 33.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

This is renter territory: 90% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10.
