Park View Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 1,761 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Park View maps to a single census tract in Wheeling, WV, population 1,761. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 2% against 33.0% citywide, putting Park View 30.9% under its own city.

At $1,122 a month, rents sit 41% over what the rest of Wheeling commands. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.2/10.

On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 17.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Food insecurity affects 7.8% of adults, 10.0 points below the national rate. 5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

That places it #9 of 12 neighborhoods in Wheeling. Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

For a like-for-like read, Oakmont Hills and Warwood score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $80,060, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
