Analysis

What drives eviction risk in King of Prussia

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 80 filings here across 7 tracked years. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Filings peaked in 2001 at 8.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 6.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 24% 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 2.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing 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.

It tracks the Montgomery County average of 4.3 closely. Average gross rent is $1,950, close to the King of Prussia average.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
