Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Harleysville
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. 55% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Montgomery County average of 42.6%. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.
At $2,118 a month, rents run 20% over what the rest of Harleysville commands. The voucher gap is 17.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 23 evictions over 7 years of observation.
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7/10. The worst year on record was 2006, when 1.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 0.8% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Social vulnerability reads 3.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
