Montrose Heights is a one-tract neighborhood of Richmond, VA, population 2,524. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.7/10, Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 60%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Cost burden runs 70% against 31.1% citywide, putting Montrose Heights 38.8% over its own city. The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. The dominant input is economic stress at 8.3/10.
This is a renter market: 67% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. SNAP participation is 30.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10. The filing record is not thin: 972 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 62.4% of renter households.
Among the 54 mapped neighborhoods of Richmond, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 15.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a like-for-like read, Carver and Woodstock score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.7/10 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.
