Lakeside Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,509 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Lakeside Park maps to a single census tract in Suffolk, VA, population 1,509. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 61% against 33.7% citywide, putting Lakeside Park 27.4% over its own city.

The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.3/10. Average gross rent is $1,071, 31% below the Suffolk average of $1,563. Severe burden reaches 24%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. That places it #8 of 20 neighborhoods in Suffolk.

Against average income of $66,892, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. 48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 4.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
