Perry South Eviction Risk: Elevated , Pittsburgh

It sits 2.1 points above the Allegheny County average of 5.0. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 7.8/10.

13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 245 evictions over 7 years of observation. At $1,095 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Pittsburgh commands.

Filings peaked in 2002 at 10.0% of renter households. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Pittsburgh. 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 8.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 85th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.1/10.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 2.5 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

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