1 census tracts · pop 2,845 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10
· range 5.4–5.4
Crestland Park maps to a single census tract in Akron, OH, population 2,845. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, Moderate tier. 31% 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.
Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Cost burden runs 39% against 31.7% citywide, putting Crestland Park 6.8% over its own city.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.2/10. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
The filing record is not thin: 841 evictions logged in this tract. Average gross rent is $811, 15% below the Akron average of $955. Filing activity peaked in 2002 at 10.7% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 6.2% in 2018, is well off that peak. Among the 35 mapped neighborhoods of Akron, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
For a like-for-like read, Arlington and East End score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $60,285, annual rent is only 16%, a wide affordability cushion.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
