Bayfield Station cluster Eviction Risk: Lower

Against a Reston baseline of 25.1%, 33% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation is 3.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Court records for this tract carry 36 eviction filings.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.9/10. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 1.9% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.2% in 2016 against a 1.9% peak.

Among the 8 mapped neighborhoods of Reston, it ranks #8 by risk, the lower third. Against average income of $159,205, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.

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, 3.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
