Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Claysville

The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 5.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Claysville, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Washington County average of 4.8 and below the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 193 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 8.1% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 15.5% of renter households in 2005.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 32nd percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

For a landlord, this is among the easier places to operate: faster process, lighter tenant-protection overhead, and shorter typical cases.
