Darley Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Baltimore, MD and houses 1,446 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 8/10, High tier. 48% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Baltimore rate of 32.0%.
33.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. 38% 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. What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 10/10.
Food insecurity affects 56.4% of adults, 38.6 points above the national rate. The poverty rate is 44%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Running cool is supply constraint, at 1/10.
At $1,109 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of Baltimore commands. That places it #1 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore.
54% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 8/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
