Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Mistletoe Springs
33% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.6/10. 86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Running hot, regional political climate reads 9/10. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $59,303, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Cost burden runs 55% here against 45.6% across Prince George's County.
It sits 1.6 points above the Prince George's County average of 4.9. Housing insecurity runs 23.8% against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 26.8% against 17.8% nationally.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 10,611 filings here across 4 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2014 at 220.5% of renter households. In a typical year about 199.3% of renter households face a filing.
