Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fountain View

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.8/10. Against the Montgomery County average of 6.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 2.3 points.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 16.5% against 31.5% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.2/10.

The voucher gap is 17.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. SNAP participation runs 5.4% against 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 9%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $2,719, 9% above the Clarksburg average. That is riskier than roughly 35% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 6% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
