Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Briarcliffe

The severe-burden share is 25%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Cost burden runs 39% here against 50.9% across Delaware County.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.8/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10.

The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.2 points above the Delaware County average of 4.7. The filing record is not thin: 278 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2005 at 12.9% of renter households. At $993 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Collingdale commands. In a typical year about 10.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 77% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.9/10.

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.
