German Village Historic District Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,061 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

German Village Historic District maps to a single census tract in Hamilton, OH and houses 1,061 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. This is a renter market: 92% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 31% of renter households.

The poverty rate is 23%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Court records for this tract carry 603 eviction filings. The severe-burden share is 11%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10. Average gross rent is $863, 14% below the Hamilton average of $1,007. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 19.9% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 9.5% in 2018, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 7 neighborhoods in Hamilton.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Dayton-Campbell Historic District and Lindenwald.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
