Glenham-Belhar Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 8,789 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.3/10 · range 5.2–7.2

Glenham-Belhar is a 2-tract neighborhood of Baltimore, MD, population 8,789. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.3/10, Elevated tier. Against a Baltimore baseline of 32.0%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.4/10. 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. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.2 to 7.2, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

The poverty rate is 16%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $1,248, 6% below the Baltimore average of $1,331. That places it #96 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore.

At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $72,817.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
