Saddle Creek is a one-tract neighborhood of Burtonsville, MD, population 3,108. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. 38% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Burtonsville rate of 27.4%.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.3/10. 11% 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. At 17% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
For a like-for-like read, Peach Orchard Heights and New Birmingham Manor score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $2,379, close to the Burtonsville average.
Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $113,952.
One tract means one number: 4.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
