Apple Ridge Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 5,869 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.5/10 · range 4.5–7.5

Apple Ridge is a 2-tract neighborhood of Carney, MD, population 5,869. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.5/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 31.8% citywide, putting Apple Ridge 13.6% over its own city.

The severe-burden share is 31%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.5 to 7.5, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 7.3/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.9/10.

Average gross rent is $1,614, 10% below the Carney average of $1,793. Among the 8 mapped neighborhoods of Carney, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $67,586.

56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
