Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lake Potomac
Cost burden runs 79% here against 46.7% across Montgomery County. The dominant input is supply constraint at 10/10. The voucher gap is 51.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.8/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Disability prevalence runs 17.9% against 31.5% nationally.
Food insecurity runs 6.5% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Montgomery County average of 6.0. That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
At 3% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 1.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $250,001, annual rent is just 17%.
Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
