Byberry Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 1,004 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Byberry maps to a single census tract in Philadelphia, PA and houses 1,004 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, in the Elevated tier. 100% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Philadelphia rate of 31.4%.

What pushes the score up most is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.

Court records for this tract carry 5 eviction filings. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.5/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 9.1% of renter households. That places it #85 of 152 neighborhoods in Philadelphia. Judgments average 4.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Only 10% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Philmont and Lagrange.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
