Hurley Ridge Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 12,319 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.4/10 · range 3.9–5.4

Hurley Ridge takes in 2 census tracts of Clarksburg, MD, population 12,319. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 44% against 30.6% citywide, putting Hurley Ridge 12.9% over its own city.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.1/10. The severe-burden share is 24%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3.9 to 5.4. A 1.5-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Disability prevalence reaches 17.1% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. Average gross rent is $2,178, 13% below the Clarksburg average of $2,495.

Food insecurity affects 9.7% of adults, 8.1 points below the national rate. 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. For a like-for-like read, Clarksburg Heights and Fountain View score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $192,259, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
