North Woodridge Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 2,587 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.7/10 · range 6.7–6.7

North Woodridge is a one-tract neighborhood of Mount Rainier, MD and houses 2,587 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.7/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 43% against 28.3% citywide, putting North Woodridge 14.6% over its own city.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. This is a renter market: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.2/10.

20% 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. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 26.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.7/10.

Court records for this tract carry 4,713 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 115.2% of renter households.

17.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Recent filings have not receded much: 88.6% in 2016 against a 115.2% peak.

Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,433, close to the Mount Rainier average.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.7/10 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.
