Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Alexandria Historic District

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

32% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Alexandria City average of 41.2%. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. Food insecurity runs 5.4% against 17.8% nationally.

It sits 0.8 points below the Alexandria City average of 5.7. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

On the national scale it lands near the 59th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $193,929, annual rent is just 14%.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
