Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sweet Briar Park

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Against Henrico County at 47.8%, 63% of renters here are cost-burdened. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.7/10.

It sits 2.5 points above the Henrico County average of 4.3. 92% 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.

Set annual rent against average income of $44,513 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.6/10. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the VA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 2.6 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,323, close to the Dumbarton average.
