Campostella Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate , Norfolk

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.4/10. The poverty rate is 38%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 32.0% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $931, 30% below the Norfolk average.

69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against the Norfolk City average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 598 filings here across 2 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 28.3% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 31.7% of renter households face a filing.

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.
