Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Richmond

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.3/10.

Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, housing-court posture reads 9/10.

Average gross rent is $725, 16% below the Richmond average. On the national scale it lands near the 40th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 5% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.4/10. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $68,464, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the St. Clair County average of 3.9 closely.

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