About eviction risk in Avon, OH

Census ACS 2023 5-year estimates show median gross rent as a percentage of household income is 28.0% — a core driver of eviction filings, because households above 30% of income on rent are statistically more likely to miss a payment after any income shock.

Economic stress: poverty rate 3.8%, unemployment 2.5%. Higher values correlate with higher eviction filing rates and longer court timelines.
