Richmond Eviction Risk: High , Philadelphia

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $967 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of Philadelphia commands.

Running hot, economic stress reads 8.4/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

It sits 1.4 points above the Philadelphia County average of 6.6. 42% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Philadelphia County average of 49.1%.

The filing record is not thin: 626 evictions over 4 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2016, when 15.6% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Philadelphia. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 13.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 3.4 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
