Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Settlers Ridge
What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 7.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Kannapolis eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Cabarrus County average of 5.0 and above the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 885 eviction filings here over 16 tracked years, with about 17.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 22.4% of renter households in 2015.
In CDC survey modeling, about 12.3% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 8.2% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
