Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Village Grove

What moves this score most is economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Pitt County average of 6.2 and above the North Carolina statewide average of 5.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 36.3% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 29.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
