Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Larimer

Cost burden runs 59% here against 40.6% across Allegheny County. Set annual rent against average income of $24,757 and the ratio lands at 68%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Against the Allegheny County average of 5.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.3 points. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 8.8/10. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10.

Average gross rent is $1,410, 12% above the Pittsburgh average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 87th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 9.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
