Guilford maps to a single census tract in Baltimore, MD and houses 4,312 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 40% against 32.0% citywide, putting Guilford 8.1% over its own city.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. 17% 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. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10.
Food insecurity affects 6.8% of adults, 11.0 points below the national rate. 4.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Average gross rent is $1,426, 7% above the Baltimore average of $1,331. That places it #130 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore. For a like-for-like read, North Roland Park/Poplar Hill and Sharp-Leadenhall score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $95,208, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. 52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
