Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Friendship
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 7.8/10. It sits 1.6 points above the Allegheny County average of 5.0.
16% 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 512 filings here across 7 tracked years.
Average gross rent is $1,083, 14% below the Pittsburgh average. The worst year on record was 2002, when 27.8% of renter households were served.
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 20.5% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 82nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 2.0 points hotter.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
