Venice Beach maps to a single census tract in Annapolis Neck, MD and houses 6,392 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.5/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 39% against 26.8% citywide, putting Venice Beach 11.7% over its own city.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. The voucher gap is 28.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Running hot is supply constraint at 7.8/10.
14% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. 3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.8/10. 3.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Only 9% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Against average income of $182,065, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $2,517, close to the Annapolis Neck average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
