Southridge Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,215 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

Southridge maps to a single census tract in McLean, VA, population 3,215. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10.

The voucher gap is 51.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Cost burden runs 40% against 29.6% citywide, putting Southridge 10.8% over its own city. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 18%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Food insecurity affects 4.8% of adults, 13.0 points below the national rate.

2.7% 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. Court records for this tract carry 17 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 4.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.3% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of McLean, it ranks #6 by risk, the middle third.

At 25% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
