Taylor Heights maps to a single census tract in Baltimore, MD and houses 4,161 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 58%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
64% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Baltimore rate of 32.0%. At $1,796 a month, rents sit 35% over what the rest of Baltimore commands. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.4/10.
Among the 157 mapped neighborhoods of Baltimore, it ranks #130 by risk, the lower third. At 12% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $84,618.
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.
