Trantwood Shores Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,709 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Trantwood Shores is a one-tract neighborhood of Virginia Beach, VA, population 3,709. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. At $2,708 a month, rents sit 58% over what the rest of Virginia Beach commands.

The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 59.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.5/10. 40% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Virginia Beach rate of 32.2%.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Court records for this tract carry 9 eviction filings. Food insecurity affects 6.1% of adults, 11.7 points below the national rate.

SNAP participation is 4.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 9.1% of renter households.

That places it #42 of 53 neighborhoods in Virginia Beach.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
