Alanton maps to a single census tract in Virginia Beach, VA, population 5,985. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
Against a Virginia Beach baseline of 32.2%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.3% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Court records for this tract carry 7 eviction filings.
3.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 4.0% of renter households.
That places it #42 of 53 neighborhoods in Virginia Beach. Judgments average 2.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 7% 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, Bay Island and Bayville Park score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
