Perry North Eviction Risk: Moderate , Pittsburgh

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.4/10. At $924 a month, rents run 27% under what the rest of Pittsburgh commands.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.2/10. The filing record is not thin: 94 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2004 at 7.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 4.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $93,955, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
