Milbrook takes in 2 census tracts of Philadelphia, PA and houses 10,644 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 31.4% citywide, putting Milbrook 24.0% over its own city.
The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.7/10.
At $1,150 a month, rents sit 18% under what the rest of Philadelphia commands. Filings are well documented here: 126 across 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10.
The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 13.8% of renter households. That places it #125 of 152 neighborhoods in Philadelphia.
Judgments average 3.4% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 16% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $90,846, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
