Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kulpsville

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.6/10.

The voucher gap is 16.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 30 filings here across 7 tracked years.

It sits 0.8 points below the Montgomery County average of 4.3. The worst year on record was 2004, when 6.2% of renter households were served. Average gross rent is $2,101, 9% above the Kulpsville average.

In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 9% 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 1.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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