Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Moravia-Walther

31% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10.

SNAP participation runs 31.9% against 15.2% nationally. Set annual rent against average income of $55,337 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.6/10. Against the Baltimore City average of 6.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.

Average gross rent is $1,497, 12% above the Baltimore average. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

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.
