Gravel Place is a one-tract neighborhood of Arlington Heights, PA, population 1,834. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 36.5% citywide, putting Gravel Place 13.1% over its own city.
The clearest offset is supply constraint, at 1/10. At $878 a month, rents sit 33% under what the rest of Arlington Heights commands.
Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2/10.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.8/10. Only 17% 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 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 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.
