Fell's Point is a one-tract neighborhood of Baltimore, MD and houses 3,824 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. At $2,086 a month, rents sit 57% over what the rest of Baltimore commands.
Cost burden runs 43% against 32.0% citywide, putting Fell's Point 11.0% over its own city. 75% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
23% 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. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.9/10.
Disability prevalence reaches 18.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. 5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
That places it #130 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $106,250.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
