Aberdeen Gardens Eviction Risk: Moderate

5 census tracts · pop 22,028 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4/10 · range 3–5.3

Aberdeen Gardens is a 5-tract neighborhood of Hampton, VA, population 22,028. The Eviction Risk Score is 4/10, in the Moderate tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Hampton rate of 34.1%.

30% 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 clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Scores across the 5 constituent tracts range from 3 to 5.3. A 2.3-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Court records carry 4,414 eviction filings across its 4 observed tracts. On the softer side is economic stress, at 3/10. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 70.9% of renter households.

That places it #9 of 17 neighborhoods in Hampton. Judgments average 5.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Sussex at Hampton and Northampton. Average gross rent runs $1,450, close to the Hampton average.

Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $63,969. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.3 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
