Braemar is a one-tract neighborhood of Aberdeen, MD and houses 4,650 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.7/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Aberdeen baseline of 31.6%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.3/10. Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.4/10.
Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10. The severe-burden share is 9%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Average gross rent is $1,254, 8% below the Aberdeen average of $1,363.
That places it #3 of 5 neighborhoods in Aberdeen. At 25% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Robin Hood Manor and Krouseland. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $71,756.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
