Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Berea
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.2/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2/10.
Running cool, state political climate reads 2.4/10. It sits 1.1 points below the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 158 filings here across 12 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2013, when 6.8% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. In a typical year about 4.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
