Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Tract 42017103800

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.2/10. about half of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Bucks County average of 41.8%. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 11 filings here across 6 tracked years. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 3/10.

The worst year on record was 2006, when 6.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Only 10% 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. Social vulnerability reads 1.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition 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. It tracks the Bucks County average of 4.0 closely.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
