Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Lincoln Place
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.3 points below the Allegheny County average of 5.0.
34% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Allegheny County average of 40.6%. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 7 years of observation.
The worst year on record was 2001, when 6.4% 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 4.8% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
