Inverness Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 1,931 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.1/10 · range 7.1–7.1

Inverness is a one-tract neighborhood of Dundalk, MD, population 1,931. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.1/10, in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 8.4/10. On the high side is housing-court posture at 8.1/10.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. Cost burden runs 39% against 35.9% citywide, putting Inverness 3.3% over its own city.

That places it #13 of 16 neighborhoods in Dundalk. At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Average gross rent runs $1,427, close to the Dundalk average. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $64,327.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
