Upson Park Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 3,841 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6/10 · range 6–6

Upson Park maps to a single census tract in Euclid, OH, population 3,841. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6/10, in the Elevated tier. Severe burden reaches 48%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Set annual rent against average household income of $18,421 and the ratio lands at 64%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 70% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Euclid rate of 30.0%.

33.0% 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 strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 10/10. Food insecurity affects 47.7% of adults, 29.9 points above the national rate.

The poverty rate is 44%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 92% 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. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.4/10.

Court records for this tract carry 3,809 eviction filings. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.6/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 46.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 18.7% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 15 mapped neighborhoods of Euclid, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

One tract means one number: 6/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
