At $785 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Micro commands. SNAP participation runs 22.2% against 15.2% nationally.

Nationally it ranks #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $49,109. 26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
