What drives eviction risk in Hanover Section

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.1/10. It sits 0.8 points above the Luzerne County average of 4.5.
Average gross rent is $866, 9% above the Nanticoke average. The worst year on record was 2003, when 4.7% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 2.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 67% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Against average income of $58,125, annual rent is just 18%. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. 36% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
