Major Court maps to a single census tract in Danville, VA and houses 5,613 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.9/10, in the Lower tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10.
26% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
SNAP participation is 24.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally. That places it #11 of 15 neighborhoods in Danville.
For a like-for-like read, Sherwood Forest and Green Acres score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Average gross rent runs $812, close to the Danville average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $44,175. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 3.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
