Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 2.9/10.
The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Court records for this tract carry 609 eviction filings.
The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 38.2% of renter households. At $1,184 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Allentown commands.
Among the 26 mapped neighborhoods of Allentown, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 10.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Center City and Union Terrace.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $52,683.
53% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
