What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.4/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10.

It sits 1.3 points below the Montgomery County average of 4.3. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.

The voucher gap is 17.1%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The filing record is not thin: 28 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2006, when 3.0% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 2.4% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 16% 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 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.6 points cooler.
