Ballinrobe maps to a single census tract in Mays Chapel, MD and houses 6,635 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 31% against 19.4% citywide, putting Ballinrobe 12.0% over its own city.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. 20% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.3/10. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.4/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
3.9% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Only 25% 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.
Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,743, close to the Mays Chapel average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
