Belvidere Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 9,795 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 3.2–4.6

Belvidere spans 2 census tracts of Canton, OH and houses 9,795 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.1/10, in the Moderate tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.3/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2/10. roughly one in three of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent. The 2 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3.2 to 4.6, a 1.4-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.1/10. Filings are well documented here: 768 across 2 observed tracts. Severe burden reaches 9%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The worst year on record was 2017, when filings touched 8.1% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 4.4% in 2018, is well off that peak.

That places it #11 of 11 neighborhoods in Canton. Only 21% 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, Avondale and Colonial Heights score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $69,434, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 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.
