· range 7.3–7.3
Sheraden maps to a single census tract in Pittsburgh, PA, population 2,774. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.3/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a Pittsburgh baseline of 29.3%, 71% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
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. The poverty rate is 22%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
The filing record is not thin: 491 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2002, when filings touched 19.3% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 14.4% in 2006 against a 19.3% peak.
Average gross rent is $1,349, 7% above the Pittsburgh average of $1,261. That places it #2 of 78 neighborhoods in Pittsburgh. Social vulnerability runs high at 9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $50,688. 52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
