Perrymont maps to a single census tract in Lynchburg, VA and houses 3,080 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Court records for this tract carry 297 eviction filings. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for around a third of renter households. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 10.6% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 8.3% in 2016 against a 10.6% peak.
That places it #13 of 22 neighborhoods in Lynchburg. Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $1,123, close to the Lynchburg average.
60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
