Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kulpsville

Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.8/10.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The filing record is not thin: 412 evictions over 7 years of observation. 47% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Montgomery County average of 42.6%. Filings peaked in 2005 at 10.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 7.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 55th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $101,250, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Montgomery County average of 4.3 closely. 44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
