Analysis

What drives eviction risk in King of Prussia

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.

The filing record is not thin: 10 evictions over 5 years of observation. Average gross rent is $1,782, 14% below the King of Prussia average. The worst year on record was 2005, when 5.2% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 4.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 8% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 1.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $131,042, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.

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.
