Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mentor

20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 171 filings here across 14 tracked years. It sits 0.8 points below the Lake County average of 3.8. Filings peaked in 2010 at 8.2% of renter households.

In a typical year about 5.2% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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.
