Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Sutersville
On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 3/10. 9% 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, economic stress reads 3.1/10.
That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 12% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10.
Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $66,739, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
32% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Westmoreland County average of 4.1 closely. Average gross rent is $780, close to the Sutersville average.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
