Woodridge is a 2-tract neighborhood of Bethel Park, PA and houses 6,345 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.2/10, in the Lower tier. 58% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Bethel Park rate of 24.7%.
31% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.6/10. Filings are well documented here: 126 across 2 observed tracts.
The voucher gap is 14.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Average gross rent is $1,469, 12% above the Bethel Park average of $1,311.
Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 3.1% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 3.2% in 2006 against a 3.1% peak. Against average income of $98,073, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes. 35% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 3.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
