Oakleigh Eviction Risk: Moderate

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.9/10. 9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 40 evictions over 6 years of observation.

43% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Dauphin County average of 39.0%. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 3/10.

Filings peaked in 2006 at 6.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.7% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 5.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $79,375, an unusually wide affordability cushion. It tracks the Dauphin County average of 4.6 closely.

Average gross rent runs $1,101 a month.

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.
