Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Frostburg
The severe-burden share is 29%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.1/10.
It sits 2.1 points above the Allegany County average of 5.5. The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 2.1 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
Average gross rent is $901, close to the Frostburg average.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
