North Virginia Beach Eviction Risk: Lower

Cost burden runs 41% against 32.2% citywide, putting North Virginia Beach 8.5% over its own city. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10.

13% 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 filing record is not thin: 2 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 0.6% of renter households.

Among the 53 mapped neighborhoods of Virginia Beach, it ranks #27 by risk, the middle third. Judgments average 0.3% 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 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,688, close to the Virginia Beach average.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
