Forest Park Eviction Risk: Moderate , Waldorf

Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Cost burden runs 43% here against 36.2% across Charles County.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.3/10. The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $1,816 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Waldorf commands.

Nationally it ranks #44,239 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10.

Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Charles County average of 4.3 closely.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
