What drives eviction risk in Strawberry Mansion
The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10.
The poverty rate is 33%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.3/10. On the high side, court filing pressure 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 224 filings here across 4 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2011, when 11.9% 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 9.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.5/10. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 3.4 points hotter.
