Argonne Hills maps to a single census tract in Fort Meade, MD, population 5,962. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Fort Meade rate of 29.6%.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.9/10. The voucher gap is 35.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint is supply constraint at 8.5/10.
Average gross rent is $2,653, 9% above the Fort Meade average of $2,435. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $107,470. 64% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 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.
