Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Chagrin-Lee

Against Cuyahoga County at 43.0%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. It sits 1.6 points below the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10. The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The filing record is not thin: 175 evictions over 12 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2009 at 15.3% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,268, 9% above the Shaker Heights average.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") 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 7.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
