Old Courthouse spans 2 census tracts of Tysons, VA, population 6,069. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 39% against 25.0% citywide, putting Old Courthouse 14.1% over its own city.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. The voucher gap is 29.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.6/10.
At $2,992 a month, rents sit 20% over what the rest of Tysons commands. Running hot is supply constraint at 7.9/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Disability prevalence reaches 17.8% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. The filing record is not thin: 4 evictions logged in this tract.
9% 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 worst year on record was 2011, when filings touched 1.6% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.5% in 2016 against a 1.6% peak.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Tysons, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
