Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Westover Hills

40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Richmond City average of 50.2%. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.4/10.
Against the Richmond City average of 4.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.3 points. Food insecurity runs 7.7% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 6.5% against 15.2% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 16.3% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 13.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
