Pleasant Grove Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,890 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

Pleasant Grove maps to a single census tract in Danville, VA, population 1,890. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Danville rate of 27.7%.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. 26% 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. The poverty rate is 29%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Average gross rent is $691, 17% below the Danville average of $836. Running hot is economic stress at 7.3/10.

SNAP participation is 23.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally. That places it #6 of 15 neighborhoods in Danville.

For a like-for-like read, Grove Park and Starmont Forest score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $41,250.

37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
