Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Home Park

28% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.1/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

It sits 1.7 points below the Lehigh County average of 4.7. Cost burden runs 38% here against 45.1% across Lehigh County. Court records carry 150 eviction filings across 7 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2005 at 14.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 8.1% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.9/10.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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