Shannon Terrace is a one-tract neighborhood of Richmond, VA, population 2,922. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 75% against 31.1% citywide, putting Shannon Terrace 44.0% over its own city.
34% 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. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.5/10.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,279, 7% below the Richmond average of $1,372.
That places it #26 of 54 neighborhoods in Richmond. Only 17% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
For a like-for-like read, Shockoe Bottom and The Mews score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $57,083.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
