Spring Grove maps to a single census tract in Bon Air, VA, population 3,851. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. At $2,620 a month, rents sit 46% over what the rest of Bon Air commands.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 53.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.3/10.
The filing record is not thin: 72 evictions logged in this tract. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. Food insecurity affects 7.4% of adults, 10.4 points below the national rate.
Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 14.8% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 17.1% in 2016 against a 14.8% peak.
Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Bon Air, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. Only 6% 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. The closest comparables inside the same city are Sheffield Court and Foundry Run.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
