Hubbard Haven Eviction Risk: Elevated , Blacksburg

Against the Montgomery County average of 5.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.6 points. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.7/10.

The poverty rate is 41%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Running hot, housing-court posture reads 9.5/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. 45% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Montgomery County average of 40.4%. At $1,244 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Blacksburg commands.

That is riskier than roughly 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the VA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 3.5 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $53,594.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
