Grose Close is a one-tract neighborhood of Bel Air South, MD and houses 7,614 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.4/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 39%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Bel Air South rate of 27.2%. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.4/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. Average gross rent is $1,307, 26% below the Bel Air South average of $1,757.
SNAP participation is 6.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.0% of adults, 8.8 points below the national rate. Among the 13 mapped neighborhoods of Bel Air South, it ranks #9 by risk, the lower third.
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 Oaks of Harford and Stone Ridge. Rent takes 11% 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: 3.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
