Riverdale Hills Eviction Risk: Elevated
1 census tracts · pop 4,845 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.4/10 · range 7.4–7.4
Riverdale Hills maps to a single census tract in East Riverdale, MD and houses 4,845 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.4/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 64% against 31.7% citywide, putting Riverdale Hills 31.9% over its own city.
35% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.2/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 25.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.1/10. Food insecurity affects 32.0% of adults, 14.2 points above the national rate. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
At $1,430 a month, rents sit 17% under what the rest of East Riverdale commands. Court records for this tract carry 2,229 eviction filings.
Filing activity peaked in 2011 at 115.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 49.1% in 2016, is well off that peak. For a like-for-like read, Ducat Town and Springbrook Terrace score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $83,750. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.4/10 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.
