Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Howard
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Average gross rent is $829, 25% below the Howard average.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.5/10.
Court records carry 24 eviction filings across 8 observed years. The worst year on record was 2011, when 2.5% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 1.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 47% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.3/10. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $74,375, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
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.
