Tanglewood maps to a single census tract in Norfolk, VA and houses 2,894 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 55% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
roughly three in four of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Norfolk rate of 32.3%. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1/10. At $966 a month, rents sit 27% under what the rest of Norfolk commands.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. The poverty rate is 24%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Court records for this tract carry 985 eviction filings. SNAP participation is 23.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 104.8% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 60.4% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 55 mapped neighborhoods of Norfolk, it ranks #7 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $43,551. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
