Mapledale maps to a single census tract in Dale City, VA and houses 6,079 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
about a quarter of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, lower than the Dale City rate of 32.6%. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10.
The severe-burden share is 16%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 11 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 5.6% of renter households. Average gross rent is $2,095, 12% above the Dale City average of $1,876.
That places it #9 of 12 neighborhoods in Dale City. Judgments average 3.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
For a like-for-like read, Queensdale and Ridgedale score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
