Long Ridge maps to a single census tract in Chesapeake, VA and houses 5,026 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.2/10.
Against a Chesapeake baseline of 33.8%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.
Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Chesapeake, it ranks #29 by risk, the middle third. Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
