Forest Green Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,239 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.6–3.6

Forest Green maps to a single census tract in Austintown, OH and houses 5,239 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 39%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

58% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Austintown rate of 28.8%. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10.

The filing record is not thin: 325 evictions logged in this tract. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.9/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 10.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 5.5% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 7 mapped neighborhoods of Austintown, it ranks #4 by risk, the middle third.

Only 26% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. For a like-for-like read, Highland Park and Victory Hills score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $57,450, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion.

Average gross rent runs $782, close to the Austintown average.

One tract means one number: 3.6/10 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.
