Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Virginia Beach

Cost burden runs 72% here against 46.1% across Virginia Beach City. Set annual rent against average income of $69,135 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 2/10. The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 1.3 points above the Virginia Beach City average of 3.9. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 10 filings here across 1 tracked years.

The voucher gap is 14.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $1,942, 13% above the Virginia Beach average. Filings peaked in 2016 at 1.6% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.6% of renter households face a filing.
