Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Four Mile Run
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 7.8/10. It sits 1.6 points above the Allegheny County average of 5.0.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 3.1/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 72 filings here across 7 tracked years.
Filings peaked in 2003 at 3.2% of renter households. 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. In a typical year about 2.2% 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 3.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
