National Landing takes in 5 census tracts of Arlington, VA and houses 13,117 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.9/10, in the Moderate tier. This is a renter market: 92% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.6/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.4 to 6.6, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
14% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 32% against 26.5% citywide, putting National Landing 5.5% over its own city. SNAP participation is 3.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Court records for this tract carry 44 eviction filings. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7/10. The voucher gap is 13.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Average gross rent is $2,614, 13% above the Arlington average of $2,322. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 1.9% of renter households. 4.9% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
That places it #16 of 39 neighborhoods in Arlington.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.9 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
