Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 3.4% over the trailing year, and 8% higher over three years (phase confidence 23/100). At a peak the opportunity is selective — specific stressed parcels, not a broad discount.

On balance, 22204 reads as a higher-equity, stable market where distress is selective and worth pinpointing parcel by parcel. There is no property file for 22204 at the moment; the composite and its components are still built from verifiable records.

Whether 22204 runs hot or quiet, its 18/100 composite is built the same deterministic way as every ZIP in the country — from recorded foreclosure, mortgage, tax-lien, climate and lender signals — so 22204 can be compared directly against any other ZIP in Arlington County, Virginia or nationwide. Nothing here is interpolated — where a source is thin for 22204, DLRadar leaves it blank rather than guessing, and re-scores as new records post.

The 18/100 figure for 22204 is a composite, not one metric: it rolls up foreclosure and pre-foreclosure activity, mortgage stress, tax delinquency and liens, local lender headwind, and structural risk into a single reading, which is why a ZIP can look calm on price yet score high on distress. The point of the 22204 score is action: it tells you whether to open the ZIP, and DLRadar takes it from there to parcels, funding and close.
