Highland Park Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint, regional political climate reads 2.2/10. Running cool, housing-court posture reads 2.6/10.

Against the Mifflin County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Mifflin County average of 34.8%. At $876 a month, rents run 10% under what the rest of Highland Park commands.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $65,559, annual rent is just 16%. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
