Brigadoon takes in 3 census tracts of Virginia Beach, VA, population 14,516. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4/10, Moderate tier. Against a Virginia Beach baseline of 32.2%, 51% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
29% 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 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.2, a 2.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
Running cool is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Filings are well documented here: 250 across 3 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 19.5% of renter households.
That places it #21 of 53 neighborhoods in Virginia Beach. Judgments average 4.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a like-for-like read, Arrowhead and Chesapeake Beach score within a fraction of it. Average gross rent runs $1,720, close to the Virginia Beach average.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $95,894.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
