Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Earl

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.7/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.3/10.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The severe-burden share is 10%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 858 filings here across 16 tracked years.

It sits 0.6 points below the Cleveland County average of 3.9. The worst year on record was 2002, when 17.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 13.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
