Hunley Park is a one-tract neighborhood of North Charleston, SC and houses 3,613 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.7/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 58%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Cost burden runs 68% against 32.3% citywide, putting Hunley Park 35.7% over its own city. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 212 eviction filings.
Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 13.0% of renter households. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.
That places it #15 of 23 neighborhoods in North Charleston. Judgments average 3.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Average gross rent runs $1,453, close to the North Charleston average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $81,311.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.7/10 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.
