Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Kulpsville

Pulling hardest the other way 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 filing record is not thin: 22 evictions over 7 years of observation. At $1,677 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Kulpsville commands.

The worst year on record was 2006, when 6.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 47% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 25% 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 1.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, 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.

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