Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West End
21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.
Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.6 points. Food insecurity runs 6.1% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 4.3% against 15.2% nationally.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 74 evictions over 11 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2009 at 4.4% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $1,073, 9% below the Rocky River average. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 2.3% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
