Chancellor Hills Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,978 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Chancellor Hills maps to a single census tract in Huntington, WV and houses 1,978 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 38%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 47%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against a Huntington baseline of 37.2%, 49% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Set annual rent against average household income of $18,849 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. SNAP participation is 37.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $624, 32% below the Huntington average of $912.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.4/10. Disability prevalence reaches 49.5% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of Huntington, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Guyandotte and Enslow Park Place. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
