Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Nottingham
The score leans hardest on rent-control risk at 5.1/10. 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 Nottingham, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Chester County average of 5.1 and in line with the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 130 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 10.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 16.9% of renter households in 2002.
The tract is White and Hispanic or Latino and ranks around the 62nd 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.
