· range 3.9–4.1
Yorkville spans 2 census tracts of Pottsville, PA, population 4,686. The Eviction Risk Score is 4/10, in the Moderate tier. 44% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Pottsville rate of 32.3%.
The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10.
Court records carry 44 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The severe-burden share is 11%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.4/10.
The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 4.1% of renter households. Judgments average 1.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Bunker Hill and Jalappa score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes.
Average gross rent runs $799, close to the Pottsville average.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
