Glenside Eviction Risk: Moderate

On the high side, local political climate reads 8.4/10. Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.9/10.

The filing record is not thin: 12 evictions over 7 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2006, when 2.2% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Philadelphia. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 1.0% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 46th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 23% 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. Social vulnerability reads 2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $107,264, annual rent is just 16%. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

41% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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