Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fairfield

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.1/10. The voucher gap is 24.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. At $2,107 a month, rents run 23% over what the rest of Virginia Beach commands. 40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Virginia Beach City average of 46.1%.

SNAP participation runs 5.2% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.4/10. It sits 0.9 points below the Virginia Beach City average of 3.9.

The filing record is not thin: 22 evictions over 1 years of observation. Housing insecurity runs 7.1% against 14.2% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2016 at 15.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 15.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
