Central Park maps to a single census tract in Emigsville, PA, population 5,129. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.7/10, placing it in the Lower tier. 19% 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.
The main counterweight is economic stress, at 2.3/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.8/10. Court records for this tract carry 994 eviction filings.
The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 59.4% of renter households. 36% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, slightly above the Emigsville rate of 32.7%.
Judgments average 12.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 18% 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.
Average gross rent runs $1,389, close to the Emigsville average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $77,243.
One tract means one number: 3.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
