Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Briarcliffe

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.8/10. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The filing record is not thin: 24 evictions over 7 years of observation. Against the Delaware County average of 4.7, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.

Filings peaked in 2004 at 7.6% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 13% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent runs $1,766 a month.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $100,135.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
