Potomac Crest Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,378 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 4.9–4.9

Potomac Crest is a one-tract neighborhood of Quantico Base, VA, population 3,378. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.9/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 58% against 37.2% citywide, putting Potomac Crest 20.6% over its own city.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.9/10. This is a renter market: 99% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 22%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.6/10. Average gross rent is $2,359, 7% below the Quantico Base average of $2,529.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 4.9/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
