Valley Manor Addition is a one-tract neighborhood of Boaz, WV, population 2,037. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 37% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
The voucher gap is 31.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.1/10.
about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, marginally below the Boaz rate of 51.0%. Only 14% 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.
Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $1,224, close to the Boaz average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 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.
