Linhigh maps to a single census tract in Overlea, MD, population 3,317. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.9/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Overlea baseline of 31.1%, 65% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.2/10. At $1,146 a month, rents sit 22% under what the rest of Overlea commands.
Severe burden reaches 12%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Only 10% 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.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Elmwood and Fullerton Heights. Against average income of $98,605, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
