Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Canonsburg

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.2/10. 66% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Cost burden runs about a quarter here against 33.2% across Washington County.

14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.3/10. Average gross rent is $863, 16% below the Canonsburg average.

Nationally it ranks #39,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 6.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $75,259, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Washington County average of 4.3 closely.
