Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 5.6 to 7.3. A 1.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Filings are well documented here: 1,442 across 3 observed tracts.
The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 21.4% of renter households. At $754 a month, rents sit 8% over what the rest of North Braddock commands.
The most recent observed rate, 10.1% in 2006, is well off that peak. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $39,777.
47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 6.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
