What drives eviction risk in College Park
What pushes it up most is supply constraint at 10/10. At $2,112 a month, rents run 70% over what the rest of Lancaster commands. The voucher gap is 51.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.3/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 14 filings here across 7 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2002 at 1.7% of renter households.
This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Lancaster. 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 1.1% of renter households face a filing.
