Pembrook is a one-tract neighborhood of Bel Air South, MD and houses 3,567 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.7/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs about three-quarters against 27.2% citywide, putting Pembrook 47.5% over its own city.
28% 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 clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1.3/10. At $1,241 a month, rents sit 29% under what the rest of Bel Air South commands.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.1/10. SNAP participation is 6.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. That places it #6 of 13 neighborhoods in Bel Air South. Only 6% 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.
Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
