Eastside Eagles Eviction Risk: Moderate , Erie

Annualized rent equals 55% of average household income of $16,435, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 73%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

31% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. This is renter territory: 76% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. Against the Erie County average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 426 filings here across 7 tracked years. At $758 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Erie commands. Filings peaked in 2001 at 18.4% of renter households.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Erie. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 16.4% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #20,506 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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