Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West Eighties
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.2/10. The poverty rate is 31%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.9/10. SNAP participation runs 28.9% against 15.2% nationally.
Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Food insecurity runs 30.4% against 17.8% nationally. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.
Court records carry 1,221 eviction filings across 12 observed years. Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 43.0% across Cuyahoga County. Average gross rent is $836, 12% below the Cleveland average.
The worst year on record was 2005, when 18.8% 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 15.2% 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.
