ZIP 15478 Foreclosure, Tax-Lien & Distress Report

ZIP code 15478 in Fayette County, Pennsylvania carries a composite property-distress score of 23/100 — a low reading on DLRadar's deterministic distress index. Environmental exposure also runs high (climate & FEMA risk (80/100), flood (NFIP) exposure (77/100)). Latent structural risk is 53/100 while live distress already moving reads 2/100. The most distinctive pressure shows up in construction/permit lag (56/100), structural risk (53/100), institutional ownership (17/100). By contrast, institutional ownership (17/100) and mortgage stress (8/100) register low.

Prices here sit in a peak phase: values rose 2.7% over the trailing year (phase confidence 27/100). Near a top, distress surfaces unevenly, so parcel screening beats headline strength.

There are about 2,776 housing units across 15478. The demographic-stress sub-score lands at 24/100. 81% of housing is owner-occupied. Rent burden reaches 30% of tenant households. Around 17% of adults hold a bachelor's degree or higher. A median home runs $169,200 here, or 2.0 times local income. 8.4% of residents fall below the poverty threshold. Vacancy runs 11.3%, above the national norm and a classic distress-and-opportunity signal. Households earn a median $71,311 — near the roughly $78,000 national figure. About 5,679 people live here, median age 46.

On balance 15478 is mixed, rewarding parcel-by-parcel screening over broad assumptions. While 15478 carries no listed distressed parcels today, each signal above ties back to a public dataset on the same national scale.

The number is not local guesswork: 15478's 23/100 comes from the same nationwide foreclosure, tax, mortgage and lender model, making it directly comparable anywhere. Where the record is thin for 15478, the field stays empty rather than modeled, and fills in as new documents post.

Each component behind 15478 - foreclosure, mortgage stress, tax and lien delinquency, lender pullback, structural exposure - is graded on its own before the 23/100 roll-up. For a buyer, 15478 is one row in a larger workflow: confirm the score, pull the distressed parcels behind it, then move from signal to funded, closed acquisition through DLRadar.
