Lynn Shores maps to a single census tract in Virginia Beach, VA and houses 3,528 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 53% against 32.2% citywide, putting Lynn Shores 20.4% over its own city.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 18%. 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 2/10.
The filing record is not thin: 12 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 3.1% of renter households. SNAP participation is 6.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate. The voucher gap is 10.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Average gross rent is $1,868, 9% above the Virginia Beach average of $1,714. That places it #40 of 53 neighborhoods in Virginia Beach.
Judgments average 1.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
