Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Milhill

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 10/10. Food insecurity runs 56.7% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 46%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running hot, economic stress reads 10/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 33.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Set annual rent against average income of $32,697 and the ratio lands at 45%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10. It sits 1.2 points above the Baltimore City average of 6.8.

Average gross rent is $1,221, 8% below the Baltimore average. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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.

That is riskier than roughly 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.5/10.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
