Miller Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Lynchburg, VA, population 2,918. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 39%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
62% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Lynchburg rate of 31.0%. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Food insecurity affects 34.5% of adults, 16.7 points above the national rate.
The poverty rate is 25%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 25.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.7/10. Court records for this tract carry 657 eviction filings.
Average gross rent is $929, 13% below the Lynchburg average of $1,073. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 23.0% of renter households. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.
Among the 22 mapped neighborhoods of Lynchburg, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 10.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Tinbridge Hill and Diamond Hill score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
