Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Forest Hills

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10. 55% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Danville City average of 42.0%.

Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Danville City average of 4.5, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.5 points.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.8/10. At $980 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of Danville commands. The voucher gap is 15.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $74,568, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the VA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
