Orchard Hill Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,723 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.8/10 · range 3.8–3.8

Orchard Hill is a one-tract neighborhood of Cloverly, MD, population 5,723. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.8/10, Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 67%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

67% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Cloverly rate of 36.7%. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.1/10.

Average gross rent is $2,804, 32% above the Cloverly average of $2,129. The voucher gap is 21.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side is supply constraint at 7.1/10. SNAP participation is 5.9% of households versus 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 9.4% of adults, 8.4 points below the national rate. Only 7% 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.

Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.8/10 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.
