Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Park View

22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1.8/10.

The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the national scale it lands near the 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Harrisonburg City average of 4.2 closely.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $57,618. 55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
