Beverly Forest maps to a single census tract in Springfield, VA, population 5,759. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.9/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Springfield baseline of 41.4%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
32% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10.
Court records for this tract carry 416 eviction filings. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.9/10. Average gross rent is $2,291, 14% below the Springfield average of $2,656.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.1/10. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 12.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 8.4% in 2016 against a 12.4% peak.
That places it #1 of 5 neighborhoods in Springfield. For a like-for-like read, Fair Vernon and Monticello Forest score within a fraction of it.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $110,385. 53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.9/10 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.
