Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Silver Lake

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8/10.

16% 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. Average gross rent is $1,298, 8% below the Silver Lake average.

That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 5.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $90,625, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

It tracks the New Hanover County average of 4.0 closely.

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.
