Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.5/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $1,557, 20% below the Washington average. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the District of Columbia average of 43.0%. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,592 filings here across 7 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2007, when 36.6% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 26.8% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 92nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the District of Columbia average of 8.7 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
