Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Tract 42017101504
68% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Bucks County average of 41.8%. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.3/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.
The voucher gap is 28.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 7.8/10.
Court records carry 14 eviction filings across 7 observed years. The worst year on record was 2005, when 0.8% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 0.5% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 47% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
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.
