Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 42017101607
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 58 filings here across 7 tracked years.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 3/10. The worst year on record was 2005, when 3.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 44% of renters.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
