East Akron Eviction Risk: Moderate

SNAP participation is 42.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 40.8% of adults, 23.0 points above the national rate.

The poverty rate is 34%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Annualized rent equals 33% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is economic stress at 8.2/10.

Filings are well documented here: 2,522 across 2 observed tracts. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.6/10. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 20.1% of renter households.

At $866 a month, rents sit 9% under what the rest of Akron commands. Recent filings have not receded much: 15.6% in 2018 against a 20.1% peak.

With little internal variation, 5.4/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
