Camelot maps to a single census tract in Petersburg, VA and houses 3,431 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.6/10, Moderate tier. 54% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Petersburg rate of 30.7%.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,549, 32% above the Petersburg average of $1,174.
Set annual rent against average household income of $54,924 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.8/10. 18% 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.
Court records for this tract carry 2,797 eviction filings. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.3/10. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 74.9% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 66.4% in 2016 against a 74.9% peak. That places it #9 of 10 neighborhoods in Petersburg. 52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
