Glendale Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,312 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.2/10 · range 3.2–3.2

Glendale Heights is a one-tract neighborhood of Glenn Dale, MD, population 7,312. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 87% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Glenn Dale rate of 39.7%.

Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 19 evictions logged in this tract. At $1,970 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Glenn Dale commands.

On the softer side is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.8/10. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 5.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.2% in 2014, is well off that peak.

At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $148,047, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 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.
