Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Greenfield

80% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.6/10. Against Chesterfield County at 42.3%, 50% of renters here are cost-burdened.

The filing record is not thin: 497 evictions over 7 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,587, 12% below the Bon Air average.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 19.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 19.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.9/10. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
