Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Perdicaris Place

The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 7.1/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Morrisville, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Bucks County average of 5.4 and below the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,002 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 21.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 25.4% of renter households in 2006.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 40th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
