Brookridge Terrace Eviction Risk: Moderate , Elizabeth City

Against Pasquotank County at 49.2%, 65% of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.9/10.

83% 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. The poverty rate is 33%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $27,447, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Average gross rent is $780, 30% below the Elizabeth City average. Disability prevalence runs 48.2% against 31.5% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.5/10.

On the high side, economic stress reads 8.4/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Pasquotank County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Court records carry 1,392 eviction filings across 9 observed years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 28.8% of renter households were served.

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.
