What drives eviction risk in Wissinoming
Annualized rent equals 44% of average household income of $42,176, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.2/10. The poverty rate is 31%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Philadelphia County average of 6.6. Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10.
11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 140 eviction filings across 4 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,536, 10% above the Philadelphia average.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 5.7% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 5.7% of renter households face a filing.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
