Mount Hebron maps to a single census tract in Ellicott City, MD, population 8,764. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4/10, Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.7/10.
Food insecurity affects 6.0% of adults, 11.8 points below the national rate. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 34% of renter households.
3.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That places it #9 of 11 neighborhoods in Ellicott City.
Only 2% 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. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
One tract means one number: 4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
