· range 4.3–8
Layhill South takes in 2 census tracts of Glenmont, MD and houses 10,690 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.8/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 4.3 to 8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
29% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 34% of renter households.
Against average income of $131,041, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $2,017, close to the Glenmont average.
28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
