Eastcleft Eviction Risk: Lower

4 census tracts · pop 17,999 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3–3.3

Eastcleft spans 4 census tracts of Upper Arlington, OH, population 17,999. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.

Cost burden runs about one in five against 25.6% citywide, putting Eastcleft 6.6% under its own city. At $1,275 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Upper Arlington commands.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.1% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. Filings are well documented here: 142 across 3 observed tracts.

Disability prevalence reaches 18.7% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. The voucher gap is 12.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. Filing activity peaked in 2006 at 9.2% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 1.2% in 2015, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 6 neighborhoods in Upper Arlington. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Kendale and Cranbrook.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
