Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hunting Ridge
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 10/10. Against Baltimore City at 50.2%, 63% of renters here are cost-burdened.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10. SNAP participation runs 26.1% against 15.2% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,154, 13% below the Baltimore average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 81% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.6/10.
Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. It tracks the Baltimore City average of 6.8 closely. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $56,723.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
