Spring Hill-City View Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 2,466 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.3/10 · range 7.3–7.3

Spring Hill-City View maps to a single census tract in Pittsburgh, PA and houses 2,466 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.3/10, Elevated tier. The severe-burden share is 42%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

51% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Pittsburgh rate of 29.3%. At $519 a month, rents sit 59% under what the rest of Pittsburgh commands.

Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. The poverty rate is 32%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side is economic stress at 7.9/10.

Court records for this tract carry 525 eviction filings. Filing activity peaked in 2002 at 20.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 12.0% in 2006, is well off that peak.

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 8.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
