Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Logan
71% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Philadelphia County average of 49.1%. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. At $999 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Philadelphia commands.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. The poverty rate is 26%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.2/10.
It sits 0.9 points above the Philadelphia County average of 6.6. Court records carry 126 eviction filings across 4 observed years. Filings peaked in 2016 at 6.5% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 88th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
