New Southwest/Mount Clare Eviction Risk: Elevated , Baltimore

SNAP participation runs 43.3% against 15.2% nationally. This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 33.2% against 14.2% nationally.

At $880 a month, rents run 34% under what the rest of Baltimore commands. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.8/10.

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

On the national scale it lands near the 84th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 50% of renters.

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.
