Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sherwood Manor

What moves this score most is rent-control risk at 6.4/10. 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 Bowie eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Prince George's County average of 6.9 and in line with the Maryland statewide average of 6.6. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 8 eviction filings here over 3 tracked years, with about 2.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.8% of renter households in 2012.

In CDC survey modeling, about 11.1% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 6.4% 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.
