Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fairfield

30% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.3/10.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.9/10. It sits 1.3 points below the Butler County average of 4.3.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 495 filings here across 13 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2008, when 22.2% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 12.7% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 4.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $98,875, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
