Gilboa maps to a single census tract in Mount Airy, MD and houses 5,605 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.3/10.
At $1,318 a month, rents sit 29% under what the rest of Mount Airy commands. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. 19% 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 tenant-organizing strength, at 2.4/10. SNAP participation is 5.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 7.9% of adults, 9.9 points below the national rate. 19% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, marginally below the Mount Airy rate of 22.3%.
Only 4% 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 Carroll Heights and Mount Airy Village West.
Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 3.2/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
