HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cedar Taylor

The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 8.2/10. It sits 1.5 points below the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.2/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Cost burden runs 37% here against 43.0% across Cuyahoga County. The voucher gap is 17.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

The filing record is not thin: 256 evictions over 12 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2013 at 9.9% 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 7.5% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3/10.

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.
