Club Haven Estates, a neighborhood in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, exhibits characteristics of a Transitional Community with Moderate Diversity. As of 2022, the neighborhood has a population of 214 and a median income of $74,470. Club Haven Estates has a relatively small population size, suggesting it may be a more exclusive or planned community within the larger Winston-Salem area.
Over the past decade, Club Haven Estates has undergone a transformation in its racial composition. In 2013, the neighborhood had Low Diversity, with a White Majority (80% white). By 2022, the community transitioned to Moderate Diversity, with the white population decreasing to 57% and the black population increasing from 9% to 29%. This shift indicates a trend towards increasing diversity, particularly with the growth of the black population. The Hispanic and Asian populations have also seen modest increases, contributing to the overall diversification of the neighborhood.
From 2013 to 2022, the median income increased from $60,930 to $74,470, representing a 22% growth. There was a significant increase in median income between 2019 ($63,376) and 2020 ($76,088), coinciding with a period of accelerated racial diversification. The population has remained relatively stable over the years, fluctuating between 201 and 233 residents. This stability in population size, combined with increasing diversity and rising incomes, suggests that the neighborhood may be experiencing a gradual turnover of residents rather than rapid expansion or contraction.
The demographic shifts observed in Club Haven Estates align with broader national trends towards increasing diversity in suburban areas. Many U.S. suburbs have been experiencing similar transitions from predominantly white communities to more diverse neighborhoods over the past decade.
The income growth in Club Haven Estates outpaces the national average, which saw about a 15% increase in median household income from 2013 to 2022. This suggests that the neighborhood is becoming increasingly affluent relative to national standards.
The transition from Low Diversity to Moderate Diversity, with a significant increase in the black population, may reflect broader patterns of suburban integration and changing preferences among middle and upper-middle-class African American families seeking to move to previously predominantly white neighborhoods.
Club Haven Estates exemplifies a Transitional Community, evolving from a predominantly white, low-diversity area to a more racially diverse neighborhood with increasing economic prosperity. These changes likely reflect both local dynamics and broader national trends towards suburban diversification and economic stratification.
