Queen Village Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 5,406 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.2/10 · range 5.2–5.2

Queen Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA and houses 5,406 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.2/10, in the Moderate tier. At $1,889 a month, rents sit 35% over what the rest of Philadelphia commands.

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1.5/10. 31% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10. Court records carry 80 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.5/10. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 2.4% of renter households. Among the 152 mapped neighborhoods of Philadelphia, it ranks #125 by risk, the lower third.

Judgments average 1.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Society Hill and Highland.

Against average income of $145,438, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

With little internal variation, 5.2/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
