The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10.
The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 16.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
SNAP participation is 26.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.
At $1,081 a month, rents sit 6% under what the rest of Martinsburg commands. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $49,470. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 4.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
