Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 42091200708
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.
12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 246 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2000, when 9.8% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 7.8% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 35th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 24% 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 4.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $112,795, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
