Parkfairfax maps to a single census tract in Alexandria, VA and houses 3,209 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
26% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. Severe burden reaches 14%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
SNAP participation is 3.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Average gross rent is $1,897, 9% below the Alexandria average of $2,089.
Among the 26 mapped neighborhoods of Alexandria, it ranks #10 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Lynhaven and Delta. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $100,737. 34% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 5.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
