· range 3.9–3.9
Oak Bridge Forest maps to a single census tract in Chesapeake, VA and houses 2,881 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.9/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 64%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs 66% against 33.8% citywide, putting Oak Bridge Forest 32.5% over its own city. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.6/10.
Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Chesapeake, it ranks #17 by risk, the middle third.
At 19% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
