Tysons CDP, VA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Tysons CDP is a small city in Virginia, with 28,022 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #40 of 688 ranked by population — larger than 94% of them. The median age here is 36.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Tysons CDP earn a median of $129,189 a year, 64.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 56% above the $82,986 median for the 383 Virginia cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 6.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Tysons CDP is valued at $640,500, 111.1% above the national figure and 120% above the $291,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,478 a month, 76.2% above the national figure, or roughly $29,736 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 33.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
