Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Byberry

The score leans hardest on eviction process difficulty at 7.5/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Philadelphia eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Philadelphia County average of 6.8 and above the Pennsylvania statewide average of 5.4. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

During 2020 and 2021, eviction filings here ran at about 1.33x the pre-COVID monthly baseline, above pre-pandemic levels.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 5 eviction filings here over 2 tracked years, with about 7.2% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 9.1% of renter households in 2016.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
