Chadswood is a one-tract neighborhood of Germantown, MD and houses 5,098 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
19% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well below the Germantown rate of 30.1%. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.1/10. Average gross rent is $2,282, 12% above the Germantown average of $2,040.
SNAP participation is 6.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Among the 12 mapped neighborhoods of Germantown, it ranks #11 by risk, the lower third.
At 12% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Liberty Heights and Blackrock Hills score within a fraction of it.
Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
