North Moreland Eviction Risk: Elevated

1 census tracts · pop 1,862 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.7/10 · range 6.7–6.7

North Moreland maps to a single census tract in New Boston, OH, population 1,862. The Eviction Risk Score is 6.7/10, in the Elevated tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 9.9/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Cost burden runs 41% against 29.6% citywide, putting North Moreland 11.8% over its own city. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

72% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. 19% 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. Disability prevalence reaches 49.1% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.1/10. The filing record is not thin: 340 evictions logged in this tract. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.6% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 9.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 5.8% in 2013, is well off that peak.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.7/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
