Sharp-Leadenhall Eviction Risk: Moderate

Sharp-Leadenhall is a 2-tract neighborhood of Baltimore, MD, population 3,660. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.2/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. At $2,313 a month, rents sit 74% over what the rest of Baltimore commands.

Against a Baltimore baseline of 32.0%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.1/10.

Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The voucher gap is 17.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Disability prevalence reaches 18.6% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. SNAP participation is 5.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Among the 157 mapped neighborhoods of Baltimore, it ranks #130 by risk, the lower third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are North Roland Park/Poplar Hill and Roland Park. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
