Graceland Eviction Risk: Elevated , Dundalk

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 10/10. Severe burden reaches 34%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. At $1,973 a month, rents run 34% over what the rest of Dundalk commands.

Running hot, local political climate reads 8.9/10. Against the Baltimore County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.1 points.

Set annual rent against average income of $67,778 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.4/10.

The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Food insecurity runs 25.3% against 17.8% nationally. 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.

Nationally it ranks #9,043 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 2.3 points hotter.

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.
