Cudell takes in 3 census tracts of Cleveland, OH, population 5,892. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 51% against 31.5% citywide, putting Cudell 19.2% over its own city.
Set annual rent against average household income of $33,997 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. SNAP participation is 34.0% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
22% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 28%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 25.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.6/10. Court records carry 2,468 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts. Running hot is economic stress at 7.1/10.
The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 29.2% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 10.2% in 2016, is well off that peak.
With little internal variation, 6/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
