Kannapolis Eviction Risk: Moderate

The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.3/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. At $953 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Kannapolis commands. Disability prevalence runs 46.9% against 31.5% nationally.

Against the Cabarrus County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

Housing insecurity runs 23.5% against 14.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 2,240 evictions over 16 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2002, when 65.5% of renter households were served.

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.
