Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Glen Hazel

Average gross rent is $594, 53% below the Pittsburgh average. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. Against the Allegheny County average of 5.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.3 points.

51% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Allegheny County average of 40.6%. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 981 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 20.3% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.

In a typical year about 16.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #11,153 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
