State & Cypress Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,078 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.9/10 · range 5.9–5.9

State & Cypress maps to a single census tract in Kennett Square, PA and houses 2,078 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.9/10, in the Moderate tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.9/10.

22% 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. Cost burden runs 39% against 32.6% citywide, putting State & Cypress 6.6% over its own city.

Running cool is economic stress, at 2.4/10. Court records for this tract carry 76 eviction filings.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.6/10. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 5.3% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.4% in 2006, is well off that peak. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $1,373, close to the Kennett Square average.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $67,833. 53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
