Carmel Eviction Risk: Lower , Charlotte

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. 18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

SNAP participation runs 5.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally.

Court records carry 238 eviction filings across 4 observed years. 49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Mecklenburg County average of 45.3%. Average gross rent is $1,452, 10% below the Charlotte average.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 12.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 12.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
