Orchard View is a one-tract neighborhood of Beltsville, MD, population 6,104. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 6.1/10, Elevated tier. 55% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Beltsville rate of 32.4%.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.6/10. At $2,340 a month, rents sit 19% over what the rest of Beltsville commands.
The filing record is not thin: 425 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.7/10. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 24.2% of renter households.
17.8% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Recent filings have not receded much: 18.4% in 2016 against a 24.2% peak. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $96,362.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.1/10 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.
