Disability prevalence runs 58.7% against 31.5% nationally. The poverty rate is 54%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $11,511 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is renter territory: 78% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. 36% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Cuyahoga County average of 43.0%.
Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
