Logan Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,976 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.5/10 · range 7.5–7.5

Logan is a one-tract neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA, population 3,976. The Eviction Risk Score is 7.5/10, in the Elevated tier. The severe-burden share is 71%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

71% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Philadelphia rate of 31.4%. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10.

Average gross rent is $999, 28% below the Philadelphia average of $1,397. The poverty rate is 26%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 126 eviction filings. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 6.5% of renter households. Among the 152 mapped neighborhoods of Philadelphia, it ranks #43 by risk, the upper third.

Judgments average 4.2% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 22% 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. For a like-for-like read, Garden Court and Cobbs Creek score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 7.5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
