The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 7.3% of renter households. At $799 a month, rents sit 10% over what the rest of Youngstown commands.
Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 37% of renter households. Among the 26 mapped neighborhoods of Youngstown, it ranks #26 by risk, the lower third. Judgments average 4.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.
For a like-for-like read, Pleasant Grove and Hillcrest score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
