Forest Hill Eviction Risk: Moderate , Akron

61% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Summit County average of 41.2%. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Food insecurity runs 35.1% against 17.8% nationally. Set annual rent against average income of $32,490 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Running hot, economic stress reads 8.4/10. 67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Against the Summit County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Court records carry 1,680 eviction filings across 17 observed years.

Housing insecurity runs 22.6% against 14.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2013 at 7.7% 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 7.8% of renter households face a filing.

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.
