Which Arlington Neighborhoods Will See the Most T
Which Arlington Neighborhoods Will See the Most T
Published on October 24, 2019
Ghosts and goblins, princesses and superheroes will be showing up at Arlington's 28,500 single family homes, 11,200 townhouse style homes and 75,600 condos and apartments
*
on Oct. 31.
According to Arlington Public Schools enrollment figures, i
f you live along the Columbia Pike Corridor, you'll probably see the most kids,
while those
along the Route 1 Corridor will likely see the fewes
t.
Residents living in
single family neighborhoods
can expect
a
steady stream
of
knocks on the door throughout
the evening
.
Overall,
though,
Arlingtonians don't see a lot of trick-or-treaters, as only 22.3% of us live in households with children under 18 (22,849 households in 2017) while 79,461 of us (77.7% of the population
)
live in households without children.
An accurate census count is critical for Arlington and other communities across the country as the data is used to fund schools, roads, hospitals, fire departments, and other services
.
Whether it can also
help
you plan
how much
Halloween
candy to buy
remains to be seen,
but we know this: n
o matter how many kids come to your door, they will be expecting
a treat
!

Arlington Profile 2019
The
U.S. Census
counts
each and every
resident in the nation, including right here in Arlington County. APRIL 1, 2020 IS CENSUS DAY! As mandated by the U.S. Constitution, America gets just one chance each decade to count its population. The collected data helps to determine things like the number of seats Virginia has in the House of Representatives, and how to distribute federal funds to local communities like ours.
Census 2020: Safe. Important. Confidential.
