Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Colonial Village
Cost burden runs 58% here against 43.8% across Durham County. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,509 filings here across 11 tracked years.
The worst year on record was 2006, when 44.2% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 29.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. It tracks the Durham County average of 4.1 closely.
Average gross rent is $1,392, close to the Durham average. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $87,446. 25% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
