HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mount DeSales

The severe-burden share is 29%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,210, 30% below the Catonsville average.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 73rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $93,934, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 44% of renters. It tracks the Baltimore County average of 5.7 closely.

37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
