Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Rockdale

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.4/10. Running hot, local political climate reads 8.9/10. It sits 1.8 points above the Baltimore County average of 5.7.

68% 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. SNAP participation runs 29.4% against 15.2% nationally. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Against Baltimore County at 46.8%, 42% of renters here are cost-burdened. Average gross rent is $1,442, 13% below the Milford Mill average.

On the national scale it lands near the 88th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 8.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
