Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Logan Square

Cost burden runs around a third here against 49.1% across Philadelphia County. This is renter territory: 81% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.7/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. Against the Philadelphia County average of 6.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.4 points. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The voucher gap is 16.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Court records carry 86 eviction filings across 4 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2012, when 2.0% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 4.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
