Court-record eviction history

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.6/10. The filing record is not thin: 20 evictions over 3 years of observation.
It sits 0.8 points above the Cumberland County average of 4.1. The worst year on record was 2003, when 3.4% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 59% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $69,505, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent is $992, close to the Shiremanstown average.
33% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
