Rollins Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

2 census tracts · pop 9,143 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.9/10 · range 6.1–8

Rollins Park spans 2 census tracts of Rockville, MD and houses 9,143 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.9/10, Elevated tier. Against a Rockville baseline of 30.9%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 36%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 6.1 to 8, a 1.9-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Average gross rent is $1,867, 18% below the Rockville average of $2,274.

Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Rockville, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Montrose and Croydon Park score within a fraction of it.

Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.9 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
