Jamaica Eviction Risk: Lower , South Greensburg

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $61,782, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Westmoreland County average of 4.1 closely. Average gross rent is $743, close to the South Greensburg average.

26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
