Reservoir Ridge Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,397 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.5/10 · range 6.5–6.5

Reservoir Ridge maps to a single census tract in Randallstown, MD and houses 3,397 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.5/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 87% against 38.3% citywide, putting Reservoir Ridge 48.6% over its own city.

At $2,603 a month, rents sit 65% over what the rest of Randallstown commands. The voucher gap is 32.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.9/10.

Set annual rent against average household income of $87,806 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running hot is supply constraint at 8.2/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7/10. At 16% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

One tract means one number: 6.5/10 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.
