Graceland maps to a single census tract in Dundalk, MD, population 2,548. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.8/10, in the Elevated tier. 87% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Dundalk rate of 35.9%.
The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Average gross rent is $1,973, 34% above the Dundalk average of $1,473.
Set annual rent against average household income of $67,778 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 8.4/10.
On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.1/10. The poverty rate is 22%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10. That places it #1 of 16 neighborhoods in Dundalk.
Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Manchester and Saint Helena score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 7.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
