Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Chateau
100% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Allegheny County average of 40.6%. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 100%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
100% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. Against the Allegheny County average of 5.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 1.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
