Harlem Park Eviction Risk: High , Baltimore

Food insecurity runs 44.5% against 17.8% nationally. Average gross rent is $770, 42% below the Baltimore average. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 9.3/10.

This is renter territory: 88% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Housing insecurity runs 34.0% against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 37%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $25,294, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 1.2 points above the Baltimore City average of 6.8.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Baltimore. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
