Kings Grant spans 2 census tracts of Virginia Beach, VA, population 6,463. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.5/10, in the Lower tier. 45% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Virginia Beach rate of 32.2%.
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 clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.3/10. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.
Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.4. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Filings are well documented here: 219 across 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 28.3% of renter households.
SNAP participation is 6.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.1% of adults, 8.7 points below the national rate. Among the 53 mapped neighborhoods of Virginia Beach, it ranks #28 by risk, the middle third.
Judgments average 4.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Huntington and Woodhaven score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.4 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
