Gregory Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 7,697 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.7/10 · range 3.4–5.4

Gregory Park takes in 2 census tracts of Newark, OH, population 7,697. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.7/10, Moderate tier. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1.3/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 8.7/10. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.4 to 5.4, a 2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The filing record is not thin: 11 evictions logged in this tract.

Against a Newark baseline of 26.6%, around a third of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 0.7% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $872, 10% below the Newark average of $973. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.1% in 2016 against a 0.7% peak.

Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.7 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
