The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.5/10. 30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Against the Forsyth County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

The filing record is not thin: 297 evictions over 4 years of observation. At $951 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Kernersville commands. Filings peaked in 2012 at 12.8% of renter households.

In a typical year about 9.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
