Herndon Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate , Oak Grove

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.3/10. 23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.4/10. Average gross rent is $1,711, 20% below the Sterling average. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10.

On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 5.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $126,224, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Loudoun County average of 4.1 closely.

25% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
