· range 5.1–5.9
Evergreen Village spans 4 census tracts of Lorain, OH, population 14,614. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.8/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 52% against 32.5% citywide, putting Evergreen Village 19.4% over its own city.
28% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 32%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.6/10. Average gross rent is $657, 26% below the Lorain average of $887. Running hot is housing-court posture at 8/10.
Filings are well documented here: 2,836 across 4 observed tracts. 14.4% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
The worst year on record was 2018, when filings touched 17.2% of renter households. SNAP participation is 23.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
That places it #4 of 7 neighborhoods in Lorain. Judgments average 3.5% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Pearl Village and HarborWalk score within a fraction of it.
With little internal variation, 5.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
