Chambersburg Eviction Risk: Elevated , Trenton

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.3/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.8/10.

It sits 1.4 points above the Mercer County average of 5.7. Housing insecurity runs 24.1% against 14.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 26.3% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 390 eviction filings across 6 observed years. The worst year on record was 2018, when 16.9% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Trenton. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 14.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
