Iris Hills spans 2 census tracts of Franklin Farm, VA and houses 10,992 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.1/10, in the Lower tier. Average gross rent is $1,586, 40% below the Franklin Farm average of $2,625.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 22.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.4/10. Food insecurity affects 5.1% of adults, 12.7 points below the national rate. Court records carry 15 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.
2.9% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Running hot is supply constraint at 7.3/10.
The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 5.1% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2016, is well off that peak. At 2% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
Rent takes 8% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
With little internal variation, 3.1/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
