Union Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate , Richmond

This is renter territory: 93% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Against Richmond City at 50.2%, 57% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Food insecurity runs 10.6% against 17.8% nationally.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Richmond. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Richmond City average of 4.3 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,409, close to the Richmond average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $58,143.

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.
