Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Overbrook
Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10.
The filing record is not thin: 1 evictions over 1 years of observation. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter. Model confidence here is 45%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point.
It tracks the Philadelphia County average of 6.6 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
