Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Davis Lake

13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

Court records carry 157 eviction filings across 4 observed years. SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,424, 12% below the Charlotte average.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 15.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 13.4% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 1.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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