Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Macclesfield
What moves this score most is rent-control risk at 9.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Edgecombe County average of 6.2 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 161 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 8.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 14.1% of renter households in 2016.
In CDC survey modeling, about 11.2% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 7.4% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
