Fort Foote Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,623 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.4/10 · range 3.4–3.4

Fort Foote Village maps to a single census tract in Fort Washington, MD and houses 3,623 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 51% 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.

57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Fort Washington rate of 31.3%. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.8/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.7/10.

Court records for this tract carry 9 eviction filings. The voucher gap is 13.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.2/10. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 9.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 0.9% in 2016, is well off that peak.

Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Fort Washington, it ranks #3 by risk, the middle third. Only 14% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Friendly Hills and Riverview score within a fraction of it.

Average gross rent runs $2,620, close to the Fort Washington average. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $154,000.

One tract means one number: 3.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
