Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sand Hill

What moves this score most is economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Lebanon eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Lebanon County average of 5.3 and above the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

The tract is Hispanic or Latino and White and ranks around the 95th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. High vulnerability tends to track with higher eviction-filing rates when rents climb.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 556 eviction filings here over 7 tracked years, with about 12.4% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 15.0% of renter households in 2000.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
