Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wellsville

The dominant input is housing-court posture at 8.8/10. The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Columbiana County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.9 points.

Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $27,386, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.2/10. SNAP participation runs 25.7% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 159 filings here across 10 tracked years.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 14.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2002 at 3.9% of renter households.

In a typical year about 2.8% of renter households face a filing.

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.
