The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. The poverty rate is 27%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.7/10.

At $1,083 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of York commands. That places it #1 of 11 neighborhoods in York.
Judgments average 14.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. The closest comparables inside the same city are Park Village and Northwest Triangle.
With little internal variation, 7.3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
