Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Patromdale

68% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Chesterfield County average of 42.3%. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10.

Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $49,205, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 72% 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. The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Chesterfield County average of 4.2. SNAP participation runs 24.2% against 15.2% nationally.

Court records carry 692 eviction filings across 7 observed years. The worst year on record was 2016, when 22.7% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 13.2% of renter households face a filing.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
