Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West Munden
Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1.2/10. Average gross rent is $1,058, 33% below the Chesapeake average.
On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running cool, economic stress reads 2.1/10. Court records carry 1,045 eviction filings across 6 observed years. SNAP participation runs 22.9% against 15.2% nationally.
It sits 0.8 points above the Chesapeake City average of 3.6. Housing insecurity runs 21.3% against 14.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2013 at 26.4% of renter households.
This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Norfolk. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 21.9% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
