Regent Square Eviction Risk: Moderate , Swissvale

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. Against Allegheny County at 40.6%, 34% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Court records carry 419 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Severe burden reaches 9%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Filings peaked in 2001 at 12.9% of renter households.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Pittsburgh. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 10.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the Allegheny County average of 5.0 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,132, close to the Swissvale average.

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.
