Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Leetsdale
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.9/10.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. It sits 1.2 points below the Allegheny County average of 5.0.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 46 filings here across 7 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2006, when 5.4% of renter households were served. 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 3.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 38% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 3.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Against average income of $65,368, annual rent is just 18%.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
