Hazle Springs is a one-tract neighborhood of Harleigh, PA and houses 5,274 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.4/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 60% of renter households.
Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2.4/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.4/10.
The filing record is not thin: 12 evictions logged in this tract. The poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 2.8/10.
The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 1.7% of renter households. Judgments average 0.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $890, close to the Harleigh average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
