Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Original Highland Neighborhood
The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.2/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.1/10. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 281 filings here across 14 tracked years. The voucher gap is 14.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Filings peaked in 2009 at 7.2% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 6.0% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 31st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
