1 census tracts · pop 6,713 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.3/10 · range 7.3–7.3

Holiday Park maps to a single census tract in Wheaton, MD, population 6,713. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.3/10, Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 29.1% citywide, putting Holiday Park 16.7% over its own city.

Average gross rent is $1,441, 33% below the Wheaton average of $2,163. The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.1/10.

Severe burden reaches 16%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.3/10.

That places it #4 of 8 neighborhoods in Wheaton. The closest comparables inside the same city are Glen Haven and Wheaton Crest. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.3/10 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.
