South Tremont Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,722 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

South Tremont maps to a single census tract in Cleveland, OH and houses 1,722 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 5/10, in the Moderate tier. 69% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Against a Cleveland baseline of 31.5%, 38% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Severe burden reaches 13%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The filing record is not thin: 587 evictions logged in this tract. 14.3% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 13.2% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 25.8% of adults, 8.0 points above the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 7.3% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #51 of 57 neighborhoods in Cleveland. For a like-for-like read, Riverside Park and West Park score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
