Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pennellville

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2/10. Food insecurity runs 6.1% against 17.8% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Housing insecurity runs 6.0% against 14.2% nationally.

Nationally it ranks #41,206 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 10% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

35% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Cumberland County average of 5.0 closely.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
