Lone Oak is a one-tract neighborhood of North Bethesda, MD and houses 3,384 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the North Bethesda rate of 27.4%.
At $3,273 a month, rents sit 49% over what the rest of North Bethesda commands. 37% 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.
The voucher gap is 41.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10.
Running hot is supply constraint at 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1/10.
SNAP participation is 3.3% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 4.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.
Among the 11 mapped neighborhoods of North Bethesda, it ranks #9 by risk, the lower third. At 9% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Stratton Woods and Windermere score within a fraction of it.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
