Hillen maps to a single census tract in Baltimore, MD and houses 4,992 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.2/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 47% against 32.0% citywide, putting Hillen 14.6% over its own city.
35% 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. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 16%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Average gross rent is $1,167, 12% below the Baltimore average of $1,331. That places it #101 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore.
Only 26% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $69,792.
One tract means one number: 6.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
