On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 7.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 2.2 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
