Cedar Taylor Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,015 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3.1–3.1

Cedar Taylor is a one-tract neighborhood of University Heights, OH, population 3,015. The Eviction Risk Score is 3.1/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10. Against a University Heights baseline of 31.4%, 37% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The voucher gap is 17.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.7/10. The filing record is not thin: 256 evictions logged in this tract. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.2/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 9.9% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 5.6% in 2016, is well off that peak. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Average gross rent runs $1,418, close to the University Heights average. 29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.1/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
