Mount Washington is a one-tract neighborhood of Baltimore, MD, population 4,363. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. 50% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Baltimore rate of 32.0%.
The severe-burden share is 35%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2.1/10.
At $1,551 a month, rents sit 17% over what the rest of Baltimore commands. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.9/10. SNAP participation is 5.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
4.5% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Among the 157 mapped neighborhoods of Baltimore, it ranks #130 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Homeland and North Roland Park/Poplar Hill.
Against average income of $110,750, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.2/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
