Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Drexel Hill

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.4/10.

Against the Delaware County average of 4.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.7/10. That is riskier than roughly 76% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.2/10. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 50% of renters. Average gross rent is $1,385, close to the Drexel Hill average. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $58,900.

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.
