That places it #70 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $56,287.
56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
One tract means one number: 7.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
