Over the past decade, the North neighborhood has experienced significant demographic changes. The population has grown from 53,105 in 2013 to 61,593 in 2022, an increase of about 16%. Simultaneously, the median income has risen substantially from $58,271 in 2013 to $75,681 in 2022, representing a 30% increase.

Racial demographics have also shifted during this period. The percentage of white residents decreased from 44% in 2013 to 34% in 2022, while the Black population increased from 28% to 35%. The Hispanic population remained relatively stable, moving from 20% to 19%. The Asian population saw growth from 5% to 8%.

Despite these demographic changes and income growth, no new LIHTC projects have been recorded in the last decade. This could be due to various factors, including changes in housing policies, availability of land, or shifts in housing priorities.

The North neighborhood of Arlington has a small but established LIHTC funded affordable housing presence, with 126 low-income units concentrated in one project completed in 1993. While this represents only about 0.53% of the estimated housing inventory, it has provided consistent affordable housing options for nearly 30 years. The neighborhood has experienced significant population growth, income increases, and racial demographic shifts over the past decade. However, these changes have not corresponded with new LIHTC funded developments in recent years. This analysis provides a snapshot of the LIHTC funded affordable housing landscape in the North neighborhood, highlighting the need for continued attention to affordable housing initiatives in light of the area's evolving demographics and economic conditions.
