Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Claremont
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 8.1/10. 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 Claremont, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Catawba County average of 5.0 and in line with the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 58th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 420 eviction filings here over 16 tracked years, with about 8.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.5% of renter households in 2010.
