Ardwick Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,155 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Ardwick Park maps to a single census tract in Glenarden, MD and houses 2,155 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 27.9% citywide, putting Ardwick Park 23.1% over its own city.

25% 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 main counterweight is supply constraint, at 2/10.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 25.7% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Food insecurity affects 30.6% of adults, 12.8 points above the national rate. Court records for this tract carry 1,678 eviction filings.

The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 155.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 96.2% in 2016 against a 155.4% peak. The closest comparables inside the same city are Palmer Park and Ardmore.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,623, close to the Glenarden average.

One tract means one number: 5.4/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
