Apple Grove Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 7,050 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Apple Grove maps to a single census tract in Oxon Hill, MD and houses 7,050 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.9/10. Against a Oxon Hill baseline of 31.6%, 25% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.9/10.

Court records for this tract carry 1,291 eviction filings. 11% 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. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 145.6% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 58.6% in 2016, is well off that peak. At $1,585 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Oxon Hill commands. That places it #4 of 4 neighborhoods in Oxon Hill.

At 17% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Murray Hill and Brinkley Overlook score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $140,110, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
