Newberry Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 1,322 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Newberry maps to a single census tract in Duboistown, PA, population 1,322. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 59% against 36.5% citywide, putting Newberry 22.3% over its own city.

Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.1/10.

At $1,035 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Duboistown commands. The filing record is not thin: 9 evictions logged in this tract.

Filing activity peaked in 2006 at 1.9% of renter households. Judgments average 1.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 18% 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.

Against average income of $82,188, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 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.
