Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ballentrae
What moves this score most is eviction process difficulty at 5.8/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Waldorf eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Charles County average of 6.1 and in line with the Maryland statewide average of 6.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
The tract is racially mixed and ranks around the 48th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
In CDC survey modeling, about 19.9% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 14.7% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
