Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sisters Cove

SNAP participation runs 5.6% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 111 evictions over 3 years of observation.

At $1,475 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Mooresville commands. Filings peaked in 2005 at 29.9% of renter households. In a typical year about 29.5% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.
