Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Harristown

At $474 a month, rents run 68% under what the rest of Woodlawn commands. 33% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Baltimore County average of 46.8%.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Against the Baltimore County average of 5.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 63% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10. Against average income of $89,191, annual rent is just 6%.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
