It sits 1.0 points above the Howard County average of 5.3. On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6/10.

Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $151,695, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for about half of renters.

Average gross rent is $2,170, close to the Elkridge average. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
