Mount Pleasant maps to a single census tract in Chesapeake, VA, population 3,338. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 68%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Cost burden runs 92% against 33.8% citywide, putting Mount Pleasant 58.2% over its own city. At $3,501 a month, rents sit 121% over what the rest of Chesapeake commands. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10.
The voucher gap is 106.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.4/10. SNAP participation is 6.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.3% of adults, 9.5 points below the national rate.
Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Chesapeake, it ranks #29 by risk, the middle third. Only 9% 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.
For a like-for-like read, Chadswyck and Deep Creek score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $132,000.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
