Normandy Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 7,597 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.8/10 · range 5.2–6.6

Normandy is a 2-tract neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA and houses 7,597 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.8/10, in the Moderate tier. 42% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Philadelphia rate of 31.4%.

26% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.2 to 6.6, a 1.4-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

The dominant input is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10.

Filings are well documented here: 461 across 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 7.5/10. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 44.2% of renter households.

That places it #97 of 152 neighborhoods in Philadelphia. Judgments average 5.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

For a like-for-like read, East Oak Lane and Hawthorne score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $86,189, annual rent is only 20%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,416, close to the Philadelphia average.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.8 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
