Pine Whiff Beach Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,572 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.6/10 · range 4.6–4.6

Pine Whiff Beach maps to a single census tract in Edgewater, MD and houses 3,572 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.6/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 50%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Against a Edgewater baseline of 32.7%, 50% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. What pushes the score up most is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 56.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

At $3,082 a month, rents sit 40% over what the rest of Edgewater commands. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.1/10.

Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10. SNAP participation is 6.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 9.1% of adults, 8.7 points below the national rate. Only 12% 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.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Oakbluff and South River Heights. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
