Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Muirfield
The score leans hardest on supply constraint at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Winston-Salem eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Forsyth County average of 5.5 and below the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
HOLC surveyors mapped this tract in the 1930s with a dominant grade of A ("Best"), above the redlined D tier. The grading still shaped decades of lending and development in the surrounding area.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 74 eviction filings here over 4 tracked years, with about 13.2% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 23.0% of renter households in 2005.
For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
