Wilsonville maps to a single census tract in North Charleston, SC and houses 1,786 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. This is a renter market: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
At $2,028 a month, rents sit 42% over what the rest of North Charleston commands. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1.4/10. Against a North Charleston baseline of 32.3%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The filing record is not thin: 1 evictions logged in this tract.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. SNAP participation is 5.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The voucher gap is 11.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 0.6% of renter households.
That places it #21 of 23 neighborhoods in North Charleston. Judgments average 0.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Liberty Hill and Waters Edge.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
