Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Indianola Park

Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Sitting well above the midpoint, 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 6.4% against 17.8% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

Average gross rent is $1,375, 17% above the Rocky River average. Court records carry 191 eviction filings across 12 observed years. Housing insecurity runs 5.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Against Cuyahoga County at 43.0%, 47% of renters here are cost-burdened. The voucher gap is 13.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Filings peaked in 2013 at 2.7% of renter households.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Cleveland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 2.1% 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.
