High Point Eviction Risk: Moderate

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 24% 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, economic stress reads 8.8/10.

Average gross rent is $787, 29% below the High Point average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 22.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Cost burden runs 40% here against 44.7% across Guilford County. Court records carry 2,125 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Against the Guilford County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 58.5% of renter households. In a typical year about 47.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 10/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
