Rosemont maps to a single census tract in North Charleston, SC, population 2,443. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 51% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the North Charleston rate of 32.3%.
Severe burden reaches 31%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Court records for this tract carry 481 eviction filings. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.
15.3% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Food insecurity affects 28.3% of adults, 10.5 points above the national rate. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 23.9% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 17.9% in 2015 against a 23.9% peak. At $1,318 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of North Charleston commands.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 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.
