Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lebanon South

The score leans hardest on housing court bias at 5.1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Lebanon eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Lebanon County average of 5.3 and below the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 41st percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 24 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 2.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.0% of renter households in 2006.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
