East Akron Eviction Risk: Moderate

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Cost burden runs 49% here against 41.2% across Summit County. Housing insecurity runs 26.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Summit County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Average gross rent is $797, 17% below the Akron average.

The filing record is not thin: 1,626 evictions over 17 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2005 at 20.1% of renter households.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Akron. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 15.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
