Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Loch Raven

On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.8/10. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. Housing insecurity runs 23.4% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Baltimore City average of 6.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

At $1,211 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Baltimore commands. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Baltimore. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #17,650 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

50% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $54,901. 55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
