Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Violetville

Average gross rent is $684, 49% below the Baltimore average. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

23% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. SNAP participation runs 22.9% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Baltimore City average of 6.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 88th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 8.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 2.0 points hotter.
