Fort Stanton maps to a single census tract in Washington, DC and houses 3,216 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9.9/10, placing it in the High tier. The severe-burden share is 48%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Against a Washington baseline of 28.6%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.
At $1,260 a month, rents sit 36% under what the rest of Washington commands. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 9.5/10.
The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 21.2% 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. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 28.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Court records for this tract carry 3,655 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2007, when filings touched 122.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 45.3% in 2018, is well off that peak.
Among the 113 mapped neighborhoods of Washington, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $52,917.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 9.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
