Drexel Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate

Against Delaware County at 50.9%, 41% of renters here are cost-burdened. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.4/10.

The filing record is not thin: 96 evictions over 7 years of observation. At $1,549 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of Drexel Hill commands. Against the Delaware County average of 4.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.8 points.

Filings peaked in 2003 at 5.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 4.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $79,704.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
