Bradmoor Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,261 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Bradmoor maps to a single census tract in Bethesda, MD, population 5,261. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 30% of renter households. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. SNAP participation is 3.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Disability prevalence reaches 17.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Among the 17 mapped neighborhoods of Bethesda, it ranks #11 by risk, the middle third.

Only 19% 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 Maplewood and Sumner.

Rent takes 14% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent runs $2,404, close to the Bethesda average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 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.
