Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Salem
The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10.
Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.8/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.4/10.
The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.0 points above the Columbiana County average of 4.0.
Court records carry 259 eviction filings across 10 observed years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 8.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 5.1% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #32,842 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.9/10. Rent consumes only 18% of average household income of $50,776, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
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.
