Indicators of Success and Challenges in Northern Virginia Northern Virginia Is a Diverse, Growing Region with a Well-Educated Population and Strong Economy Indicators of Success and Challenges in Northern Virginia Northern Virginia is a diverse, growing region with a well-educated population and strong economy. However, with this success comes challenges such as high CONTENTS housing costs and long commutes that hit low-income residents particularly hard. 1 about the opportunity index The region--Arlington County, Alexandria City, Falls Church City, Fairfax County, 2 general demographics Fairfax City, Loudoun County, Manassas City, Manassas Park City, and Prince William 11 economy County--also continues to be heavily dependent on federal employment, both 19 education directly and through federal contracts.

INDICATORS OF SUCCESS AND CHALLENGES 1 THE OPPORTUNITY INDEX FOR NORTHERN VIRGINIA general demographics Northern Virginia has become a more diverse region since the turn of the century, especially with regard to race, ethnicity, and country of origin, while experiencing dramatic overall population growth. While localities often differ in where these changes are seen, the region as a whole is often consistent with the state or the nation in the variety of people that call Northern Virginia home. The region is seeing a slightly older population and fewer veterans as a share of the population, and certain localities such as Prince William and Loudoun counties have seen an increase in the share of children and youth. The growing diversity of the area as a whole is likely to continue. The population of Northern Virginia has soared from 1.1 million in 1980 to 2.3 million in 2016. The most dramatic growth has occurred in Loudoun County, where the population has soared from under 60,000 residents to over 380,000, followed by Prince William County where the population has increased from about 145,000 to over 450,000 residents. Yet even the slowest-growing locality, Falls Church City, has seen growth over this period. AGE Over the last nearly four decades, Northern Virginia’s population has slightly aged. In 1980, 28 percent of the population was under the age of 18; today that group makes up 25 percent of the population. On the other end, nearly 10 percent of today’s population is over 65 compared to 6 percent in 1980. A significant majority of Northern Virginia’s population is over 25 years of age, A significant majority with 47 percent between the ages of 25 and 54. The second largest age range by percentage are 5 to 17 year olds at 17 and a half percent. Young adults, of Northern Virginia’s between the ages of 18 and 24 comprise just 8 percent of the population. Older adults, aged 65 and older make up 10 percent of the population, nearly population is over equivalent to those between 55 and 64 at 11 percent. 25 years of age, with In Northern Virginia, between 2000 and 2015 there has been little change in the proportion of those under age 5 (about 7 percent of the region’s 47% between the population), those 5 to 17 (about 17.5 percent), and those between the ages of 18 to 24 (about 8 percent), hovering around 7 percent, 17.5, and 8 percent, ages of 25 and 54. respectively. Adults age 25 to 54 have seen a slight decrease as a share of the population to 47 percent from 52 percent, while the share of those 55 to 64 have increased to 11 percent from 8 percent. Adults aged 85 and older now comprise 1 percent of the population, compared to 0.8 percent in 2000. While the share of adults 75 to 84 has remained steady, Northern Virginia appears to have a slightly aging population overall. Currently, in most age brackets, Alexandria is comparable to the region overall, with the exception of 5 to 17 year olds and 25 to 54 year olds. While 5 to 17 year olds comprise 17 percent of Northern Virginia’s population, this age group is only 10 percent of Alexandria’s population. Conversely, the city has a larger proportion of 25 to 54 year olds — 56 percent compared to the region’s 47 percent. In the last 15 years, Alexandria has seen slight increases in the share of children under 5, rising to 7.5 percent from 6 percent, and those between the ages of 65 to 74, also up 1.5 percent. The greatest increase, up 3 percentage points, is seen in those 2 INDICATORS OF SUCCESS AND CHALLENGES THE OPPORTUNITY INDEX FOR NORTHERN VIRGINIA Age: Prince William County Percentages represent change over the time period displayed.

On average, Arlington’s population has grown at about 1% per year since 2000. ­ Arlington County population estimates are based on housing unit counts and residential construction activity, which is closely monitored for changes and reported quarterly through the County’s development tracking reports. The U.S. Census Bureau also produces estimates at the county level that are higher due in part to the population migration methodology utilized by the U.S. Census Bureau. Historically, Arlington County’s estimates are closer than the Census Bureau’s estimates to the actual Decennial Census counts.

  • Building Northern Virginia's Future
    Building Northern Virginia’s Future: Policies to Create a More Affordable, Equitable Housing Supply JANUARY 2019 A Letter from the Executive Director Transportation, housing opportunities at all price points, and a skilled workforce are acknowledged as the key elements of a ‘three-legged stool’ that support regional economic prosperity in the Washington metropolitan region. In the spring of 2018, the region entered into a landmark agreement to provide dedicated funding for Metro. Since that time, regional advocates have turned their attention to housing supply and affordability. In September 2018, the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments (COG) released a report showing that the Washington region must increase the number of planned housing units by over 100,000 homes between now and 2045 ‘to sustain economic growth and improve quality of life.’ As Robert White, the newly elected Chairman of the COG Board of Directors stated: “I can think of no higher regional priority than to ensure a sufficient supply of affordably-priced housing for our current residents as well as the workers we need to fill the new jobs anticipated in the future.” Building Northern Virginia’s Future: Policies to Create a More Affordable, Equitable Housing Supply is the latest in a series of studies released by the Northern Virginia Affordable Housing Alliance to address specific housing challenges facing our region. Our report shows that after keeping pace with population growth from 1990-2010, housing production in the inner region of Washington, DC significantly lagged population growth from 2010-2016 – 7.0% population growth vs. 2.7% housing units. A number of factors have contributed to this under-performing market, namely: lengthy site planning processes; more restrictive zoning regulations; and a shortage of skilled construction labor.

In times of great economic uncertainty and demographic change, Northern Virginia is under tremendous pressure to offer the most efficient and accessible health and wellness programs. We hope this directory facilitates and supports strategic partnerships and key alliances among these and other groups. And we hope that the groups listed will use this information to direct their clients to additional resources which they may need. The Foundation invited nonprofit organizations and government agencies that offer health and wellness programs in Northern Virginia to submit information for inclusion in this directory. Our goal was to identify community-based programs that work with individuals and groups in one or more of the following ways: Adopting healthy behaviors and/or reducing health risks Increasing self-care skills Improving management of common ailments Using health care services more effectively and/or improving understanding of medical procedures and therapeutic regimens We only included programs located in and serving Northern Virginia, operating under the auspices of a nonprofit or government agency and open to the public.

  • Virginia PRO Act Survey Release
    PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release: June 29, 2021 Contact Bonnie Taylor 703.297.8554 Survey: Virginia Voters Concerned About PRO Act And Its Impact On Workers’ Rights And Small Business Nearly eight in 10 voters concerned about federal legislation repealing Virginia’s right-to-work laws, forcing workers to pay union dues or risk losing their job. Seven in 10 voters concerned about privacy issues and negative impacts on small businesses and in- dependent contractors. Fairfax, VA – A new statewide survey shows Virginia voters have serious concerns regarding the Protecting Right to Organize (PRO) Act and the impact the federal legislation would have on workers’ rights and small business if enacted by Congress. Virginia voters are most concerned that the PRO Act, which would drastically rewrite labor regulations in the U.S. and repeal Virginia’s right-to-work laws, would force employees to join a union and pay dues to retain their job, turn over employees’ personal information to union organizers, negatively impact small businesses and put inde- pendent contractors out of work. Northern Virginia Chamber President and CEO Julie Coons said the survey aligns with the concerns of employ- ees and employers throughout the state: “This year has taken a toll on Virginia’s workers and small businesses. The PRO Act that would repeal our right- to-work law and force Virginians to pay union dues as a condition of employment. Doing so would do irreparable harm to Virginia’s ability to attract new businesses, permanently damaging our economy,” Ms. Coons said. “This survey shows that voters share these concerns and do not support radically changing labor laws at the expense of Virginia workers and businesses.” Ms.

  • Arlington County Profile
    ARLINGTON COUNTY PROFILE OVERVIEW OF ARLINGTON Arlington County is located in northern Virginia, directly across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. The County encompasses 25.8 square miles of land, which was originally split off from Fairfax County in 1801 and ceded by Virginia to be included in the ten-mile square Federal District. In 1847, however, Congress allowed the land to return to the jurisdiction of Virginia following a vote in favor of retrocession by its members. This area was then known as Alexandria City and Alexandria County. In 1920, to avoid confusion, the county was renamed Arlington County. Annexation of any part of Arlington County by neighboring jurisdictions is prohibited by present law unless the entire County is annexed with the approval of County voters. There are no jurisdictions with overlapping debt or taxing powers. The water and sewage systems are operated on a self- supporting basis by the County government. Arlington’s location in the center of the Washington metropolitan region, just five minutes from Washington by car or Metrorail, has made the County a highly desirable business and residential location. Arlington has maintained high-quality residential neighborhoods while supporting well- managed growth. High-density commercial and residential development is focused around Metro stations in the Rosslyn-Ballston corridor and the Jefferson Davis corridor, which includes both Pentagon City and Crystal City. Arlington County has an estimated 2014 population of 215,000, an increase of 13.5 percent over the 2000 population. Additionally, Arlington is home to an estimated 220,600 jobs, as of January 1, 2014.

  • Fairfax County Principles for WMATA Funding • the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) Is Vital to the Trans
    Adopted February 6, 2018 Fairfax County Principles for WMATA Funding The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) is vital to the transportation network and economic growth of Northern Virginia and the Commonwealth, and sufficient state support is needed to address state of good repair and help accommodate additional growth in Fairfax County and Northern Virginia. Fairfax County strongly supports the identification and enactment of long- term, dedicated, bondable, reliable, and sustainable funding to support WMATA’s capital funding requirements. In addition to addressing WMATA capital needs, the County supports NVTC’s Principles for WMATA Reform, pertaining to WMATA’s governance and operations, adopted in September 2017. The enactment of additional Virginia funding must be contingent on the provision of additional funding from the District of Columbia and Maryland. It is essential that a WMATA funding plan not jeopardize the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority’s (NVTA) existing authorities, creditworthiness, credibility or bond validation. It is also essential that a funding plan not trigger the “kill switch” that would dissolve the Northern Virginia regional revenue sources enacted by the 2013 General Assembly. The Commonwealth’s funding for WMATA must include a substantial statewide component, in order to avoid dramatically increasing the funding burden on Northern Virginia taxpayers, who already provide extensive funding for transportation projects and services, including WMATA. Any local transportation sources redirected to WMATA funding needs should be accompanied by legislative authority to replace such revenues, as Northern Virginia’s transportation funding needs continue to grow. Any funding solution should leave each NVTA member with reasonable access to both regional and local funds.
