Washington Highlands Eviction Risk: High

Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10. 57% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the District of Columbia average of 43.0%. SNAP participation runs 35.5% against 15.2% nationally.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 9.5/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the District of Columbia average of 8.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.

Housing insecurity runs 25.2% against 14.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,376 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2009, when 54.1% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 48.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.2/10.

Statewide the DC average is 8.7, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
