Highland Creek Eviction Risk: Lower , Charlotte

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,069, 28% above the Charlotte average. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

SNAP participation runs 4.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 7.7% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0.

The filing record is not thin: 18 evictions over 4 years of observation. The voucher gap is 13.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Filings peaked in 2005 at 3.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.8% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 5% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.6/10. Statewide the NC average is 4.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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