Dominion Heights is a one-tract neighborhood of Arlington, VA and houses 3,411 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 26.5% citywide, putting Dominion Heights 15.2% over its own city.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Court records for this tract carry 4 eviction filings.
At $1,954 a month, rents sit 16% under what the rest of Arlington commands. 3.4% 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. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10.
The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 0.9% of renter households. That places it #31 of 39 neighborhoods in Arlington. Judgments average 0.4% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Boulevard Manor and Donaldson Run. Rent takes 13% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
