Wilson Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 2,300 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.6/10 · range 7.6–7.6

Wilson Park maps to a single census tract in Baltimore, MD, population 2,300. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.6/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Baltimore baseline of 32.0%, 60% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1/10. SNAP participation is 36.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

This is a renter market: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Food insecurity affects 36.1% of adults, 18.3 points above the national rate.

The poverty rate is 23%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $1,110, 17% below the Baltimore average of $1,331. That places it #52 of 157 neighborhoods in Baltimore.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Parklane and Berea. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $42,955.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
