Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Stanton
The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.2/10.
Against the Philadelphia County average of 6.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 158 filings here across 4 tracked years.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 12.7% of renter households were served. 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. In a typical year about 9.5% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
