Talbot Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Norfolk, VA, population 2,171. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.9/10, Lower tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Norfolk rate of 32.3%.
The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.5/10. 71% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. At $1,099 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Norfolk commands. Court records for this tract carry 567 eviction filings.
Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 40.7% of renter households. Among the 55 mapped neighborhoods of Norfolk, it ranks #25 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 6.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $60,234.
One tract means one number: 3.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
