Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Maple Heights

What moves this score most is supply constraint at 7.8/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

In CDC survey modeling, about 23.1% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 18.8% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
