Oak Hill maps to a single census tract in East Highland Park, VA and houses 6,674 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Against a East Highland Park baseline of 41.6%, about three-quarters of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 36%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2/10.
Court records for this tract carry 421 eviction filings. The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.4/10. 14.8% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 33.2% of renter households. SNAP participation is 23.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,197, 9% below the East Highland Park average of $1,318. Judgments average 9.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
The closest comparables inside the same city are East Highland Park and Mayfair Place. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
