· range 4.8–5.2
Aspen Park takes in 2 census tracts of Pasadena, MD, population 8,907. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, in the Moderate tier. 44% 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.
56% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Pasadena rate of 30.9%. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.2/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10. The voucher gap is 12.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Average gross rent is $2,203, 8% below the Pasadena average of $2,393. That places it #2 of 4 neighborhoods in Pasadena. For a like-for-like read, Solley Park and Turf Valley score within a fraction of it.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0.4 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $112,501. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
