Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Montgomery

SNAP participation runs 31.9% against 15.2% nationally. 72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 27.0% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $861, 21% below the Montgomery average. Against the Montgomery County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.
