College Downs Eviction Risk: Moderate , Charlotte

Against Mecklenburg County at 45.3%, 69% of renters here are cost-burdened. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 45%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $928, 42% below the Charlotte average. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.5/10.

91% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Against the Mecklenburg County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.

Food insecurity runs 26.1% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 22.2% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
