Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sharpsburg

29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.4/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.

Cost burden runs 31% here against 41.8% across Edgecombe County. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 404 filings here across 7 tracked years.

It sits 0.6 points below the Edgecombe County average of 4.0. The worst year on record was 2016, when 20.9% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 18.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 29% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 6.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $70,784, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
