Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Harristown

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 10/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.1/10.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.4/10. Against Baltimore County at 46.8%, 52% of renters here are cost-burdened. It sits 0.7 points below the Baltimore County average of 5.7.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. On the national scale it lands near the 61st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 7.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,459, close to the Woodlawn average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $76,404. 33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
