Westgate Park maps to a single census tract in Austintown, OH and houses 4,516 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.9/10, in the Moderate tier. 41% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Austintown rate of 28.8%.
The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10.
Court records for this tract carry 175 eviction filings. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. 8% 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.
At $689 a month, rents sit 13% under what the rest of Austintown commands. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 9.4% of renter households. That places it #3 of 7 neighborhoods in Austintown.
Judgments average 3.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. At 26% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.
One tract means one number: 4.9/10 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.
