Martin's Run Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 5,454 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Martin's Run maps to a single census tract in Lorain, OH and houses 5,454 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.6/10.

The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is housing-court posture at 8/10.

At $1,088 a month, rents sit 23% over what the rest of Lorain commands. 39% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Lorain rate of 32.5%. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10.

That places it #6 of 7 neighborhoods in Lorain. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are The Oaks and Downtown Lorain. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 4.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
