Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pohick Hills

It sits 1.1 points below the Fairfax County average of 4.3. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7.4/10. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Housing insecurity runs 5.5% against 14.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 12 filings here across 4 tracked years. Average gross rent is $2,875, 10% above the Newington Forest average.

Filings peaked in 2012 at 3.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.3% of renter households face a filing.

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.
