Wildwoods Eviction Risk: Moderate

8 census tracts · pop 40,097 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.7/10 · range 5–7.3

Wildwoods spans 8 census tracts of Randallstown, MD and houses 40,097 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. 52% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Randallstown rate of 38.3%.

24% 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. The 8 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5 to 7.3, a 2.3-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.3/10.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. At $1,752 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of Randallstown commands.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $95,125. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.3 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
