Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Milroy
The main counterweight is regional political climate at 2.2/10. On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.8/10. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 31 filings here across 7 tracked years. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.9/10. Filings peaked in 2000 at 3.3% of renter households.
In a typical year about 1.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 18% 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.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 13% of average household income of $71,910, an unusually wide affordability cushion. It tracks the Mifflin County average of 4.0 closely.
Average gross rent is $783, close to the Milroy average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
