Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Overbrook

18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10.

Cost burden runs roughly one in three here against 40.6% across Allegheny County. The filing record is not thin: 55 evictions over 7 years of observation.

It sits 0.7 points above the Allegheny County average of 5.0. Filings peaked in 2003 at 14.5% of renter households.

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 9.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 74th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 16% 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 2.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.1 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
