Elizabeth City Eviction Risk: Lower

Average gross rent is $1,642, 47% above the Elizabeth City average. The voucher gap is 37.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.9/10. Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.8/10. It sits 1.0 points below the Pasquotank County average of 4.0.

Court records carry 574 eviction filings across 9 observed years. SNAP participation runs 7.4% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 31.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 13.7% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
