Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Plaza Hills
The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.5/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.9/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Court records carry 319 eviction filings across 4 observed years. SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally.
The worst year on record was 2005, when 46.6% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 18.0% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0 closely.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
