Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Virginia Square
The score leans hardest on local political climate at 8.5/10. Cost burden runs 28% here against 38.9% across Arlington County.
Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. Disability prevalence runs 17.1% against 31.5% nationally.
The voucher gap is 23.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,847, 23% above the Arlington average. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.7/10. Housing insecurity runs 5.2% against 14.2% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 79% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 1.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
