Tanglewood is a one-tract neighborhood of Arnold, MD, population 5,584. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.8/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.
The voucher gap is 19.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 7/10.
Cost burden runs 33% against 29.0% citywide, putting Tanglewood 3.6% over its own city. SNAP participation is 6.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.6% of adults, 8.2 points below the national rate.
At $2,349 a month, rents sit 9% over what the rest of Arnold commands. That places it #3 of 6 neighborhoods in Arnold. At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Lark Hill and Henekes Corner. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $131,653.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
