Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Spout Springs

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 9.6/10. This is renter territory: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Against Harnett County at 37.3%, 46% of renters here are cost-burdened.

At $1,522 a month, rents run 24% under what the rest of Spout Springs commands. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.4/10.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The filing record is not thin: 1,091 evictions over 17 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 5.4% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 7.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #42,813 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.7/10.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
