Roland Park maps to a single census tract in Baltimore, MD and houses 3,962 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Baltimore baseline of 32.0%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. 26% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. At $1,684 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of Baltimore commands.
Food insecurity affects 5.4% of adults, 12.4 points below the national rate. SNAP participation is 3.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
That places it #130 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $145,455, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 5.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
