Brookeville Knolls Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,251 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Brookeville Knolls maps to a single census tract in Olney, MD, population 6,251. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. The severe-burden share is 35%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10. 35% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Olney rate of 29.0%. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Food insecurity affects 7.3% of adults, 10.5 points below the national rate. The voucher gap is 13.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $2,617, 9% above the Olney average of $2,404.

That places it #1 of 9 neighborhoods in Olney. Only 5% 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 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
