Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Blue Oaks

Cost burden runs 68% here against 41.0% across Fairfax County. The voucher gap is 35.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The dominant input is supply constraint at 8.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10. At $3,133 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Kings Park West commands.

Food insecurity runs 7.5% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.4/10.

Court records carry 4 eviction filings across 3 observed years. Housing insecurity runs 6.4% against 14.2% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2011 at 2.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 47% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 12% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
