Strawberry Mansion spans 6 census tracts of Philadelphia, PA, population 18,693. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 8/10, High tier. 41% 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.
Against a Philadelphia baseline of 31.4%, 55% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The dominant input is economic stress at 9.3/10. The poverty rate is 39%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
At $907 a month, rents sit 35% under what the rest of Philadelphia commands. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.1/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $31,892 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
Scores across the 6 constituent tracts range from 6.6 to 8. A 1.4-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Court records carry 2,004 eviction filings across its 5 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 7.5/10.
Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 18.5% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 9.9% in 2016, is well off that peak.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 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.
