Larimer is a one-tract neighborhood of Pittsburgh, PA, population 1,574. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.3/10, Elevated tier. 52% 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.
Annualized rent equals 68% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against a Pittsburgh baseline of 29.3%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The poverty rate is 35%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 8.8/10.
70% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Average gross rent is $1,410, 12% above the Pittsburgh average of $1,261.
The voucher gap is 10.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Among the 78 mapped neighborhoods of Pittsburgh, it ranks #2 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Central Oakland and Mexican War Streets Historic District.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
One tract means one number: 7.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
