Chevy Chase Terrace is a one-tract neighborhood of Chevy Chase Village, MD, population 1,885. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 67%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Cost burden runs 83% against 51.0% citywide, putting Chevy Chase Terrace 32.3% over its own city. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 51.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Running cool is economic stress, at 1/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 3.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 3.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Only 3% 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. Against average income of $250,001, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 0%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $3,501, close to the Chevy Chase Village average.
One tract means one number: 5.1/10 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.
