McAuley Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,468 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 4.9–4.9

McAuley Park maps to a single census tract in Potomac, MD, population 4,468. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.9/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 77% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Potomac rate of 27.3%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. At $1,905 a month, rents sit 34% under what the rest of Potomac commands. Disability prevalence reaches 19.3% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

4.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. That places it #3 of 10 neighborhoods in Potomac.

At 14% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Holly Hill and Montgomery Square score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 9% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
