SNAP participation runs 43.0% against 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 30%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, economic stress reads 9.5/10.

The poverty rate is 38%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Housing insecurity runs 33.3% against 14.2% nationally.

On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.8/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Baltimore City average of 6.8. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Baltimore.

That is riskier than roughly 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 2.3 points hotter.
