Tradiations of America maps to a single census tract in Chester, VA and houses 5,614 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.9/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 29.5% citywide, putting Tradiations of America 12.8% over its own city.
27% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 1,646 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 36.2% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 32.3% in 2016 against a 36.2% peak.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Chester, it ranks #3 by risk, the lower third. Only 25% 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, Grove Place and Tinsberry Trace score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $97,946, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,566, close to the Chester average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
