Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Homestead Park
20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 7.8/10.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.6/10. Court records carry 280 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Cost burden runs 37% here against 40.6% across Allegheny County.
Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 3/10. Filings peaked in 2000 at 9.8% 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 7.1% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. It tracks the Allegheny County average of 5.0 closely.
Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $70,313.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
