Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Plymouth Meeting

The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.2/10.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 77 evictions over 7 years of observation. It sits 0.7 points below the Montgomery County average of 4.3.

The worst year on record was 2006, when 5.2% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.7% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #56,048 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 21% 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 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Against average income of $138,600, annual rent is just 16%. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
