Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West End
What moves this score most is supply constraint at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Forsyth County average of 5.5 and in line with the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 74 eviction filings here over 4 tracked years, with about 6.8% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 11.2% of renter households in 2010.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 33rd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
