Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Wyoming
What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 50%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Against Philadelphia County at 49.1%, 60% of renters here are cost-burdened. Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income of $37,300, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Average gross rent is $1,015, 27% below the Philadelphia average.
Running hot, 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. The filing record is not thin: 507 evictions over 4 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2012, when 9.5% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 9.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #7,836 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
