Bradbury Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,243 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.2/10 · range 4.2–4.2

Bradbury Park is a one-tract neighborhood of Suitland, MD, population 2,243. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 49% against 33.4% citywide, putting Bradbury Park 15.2% over its own city.

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.4% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Court records for this tract carry 5,475 eviction filings.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 7.5/10. 15.0% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 282.5% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 240.5% in 2016 against a 282.5% peak. That places it #2 of 4 neighborhoods in Suitland.

For a like-for-like read, Parkland Terrace and Parkland score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Average gross rent runs $1,698, close to the Suitland average. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $69,476.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.2/10 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.
