Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Argonne Hills
The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 9.9/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Fort Meade, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Anne Arundel County average of 6.4 and above the Maryland statewide average of 6.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is White and Black and ranks around the 27th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
In CDC survey modeling, about 13.8% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 8.6% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
