Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Murraysville

Against New Hanover County at 48.2%, 69% of renters here are cost-burdened. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8/10. The voucher gap is 23.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.3/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 10.8% against 17.8% nationally. Against the New Hanover County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. At $1,954 a month, rents run 10% over what the rest of Murraysville commands.

On the national scale it lands near the 29th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 1.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
