Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Canonsburg

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.2/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.3/10. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

It sits 1.0 points below the Washington County average of 4.3. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 242 filings here across 7 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2006, when 8.3% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 6.7% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 27th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 3.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $85,869, annual rent is just 15%.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
