Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Nob Hill

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,501, 70% above the Ellicott City average. The voucher gap is 78.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

Cost burden runs 54% here against 45.4% across Howard County. SNAP participation runs 2.8% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Howard County average of 5.3, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.5% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
