New Horizons Eviction Risk: Lower

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.5/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 8.2% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally. It sits 0.8 points below the Carroll County average of 4.6.

On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Model confidence here is 65%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point.

Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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