Brookside Manor is a one-tract neighborhood of Chillum, MD, population 4,056. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.5/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Chillum rate of 28.9%.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 33.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.4/10. This is a renter market: 68% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. SNAP participation is 29.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The filing record is not thin: 3,493 evictions logged in this tract.
The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. At $1,475 a month, rents sit 15% under what the rest of Chillum commands. Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 120.6% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 78.1% in 2016 against a 120.6% peak. Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Chillum, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.5/10 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.
