Chriswood Manor Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,623 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10 · range 5.3–5.3

Chriswood Manor is a one-tract neighborhood of Columbia, MD, population 6,623. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.3/10, Moderate tier. Average gross rent is $3,501, 71% above the Columbia average of $2,042.

The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 78.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. Cost burden runs roughly one in four against 27.9% citywide, putting Chriswood Manor 4.0% under its own city. 4.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

That places it #17 of 19 neighborhoods in Columbia. Only 10% 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 Haviland Hills and Woodleigh.

Against average income of $250,001, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
