Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Belair-Parkside

Severe burden reaches 37%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 10/10. SNAP participation runs 40.6% against 15.2% nationally.

Set annual rent against average income of $49,511 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Housing insecurity runs 32.4% against 14.2% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10. The poverty rate is 30%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Baltimore City average of 6.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.

Average gross rent is $1,578, 19% above the Baltimore average. On the high side, economic stress reads 7.5/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
