Colvin's Glen maps to a single census tract in Reston, VA and houses 6,132 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Reston baseline of 25.1%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.6/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 8/10.
Average gross rent is $1,815, 19% below the Reston average of $2,231. Court records for this tract carry 133 eviction filings.
SNAP participation is 5.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 7.5% of adults, 10.3 points below the national rate.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. The worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 4.3% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 2.9% in 2016 against a 4.3% peak.
That places it #6 of 8 neighborhoods in Reston. For a like-for-like read, Pinecrest and Woodcrest Cluster score within a fraction of it.
One tract means one number: 4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
