Westfield Terrace is a one-tract neighborhood of New Market, PA and houses 3,339 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 32.7% citywide, putting Westfield Terrace 18.9% over its own city.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.9/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.7/10. The severe-burden share is 20%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.8/10. Court records for this tract carry 238 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 9.8% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 6.1% in 2006 against a 9.8% peak. At $917 a month, rents sit 7% over what the rest of New Market commands. Against average income of $93,083, annual rent is only 12%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
