3 census tracts · pop 9,802 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4/10
· range 3.3–4.5
Madison Village takes in 3 census tracts of Lakewood, OH, population 9,802. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10.
Cost burden runs 33% against 25.1% citywide, putting Madison Village 8.3% over its own city. 15% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The 3 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.3 to 4.5, a 1.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
Filings are well documented here: 1,343 across 3 observed tracts. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.9/10. Filing activity peaked in 2010 at 8.7% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 4.8% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 9 mapped neighborhoods of Lakewood, it ranks #6 by risk, the lower third. For a like-for-like read, West Haven and Uptown score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $76,179, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Average gross rent runs $1,119, close to the Lakewood average.
43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
