Berkshire Park Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 8,850 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.6/10 · range 3.5–3.8

Berkshire Park Historic District spans 2 census tracts of Cuyahoga Falls, OH, population 8,850. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3.6/10, in the Lower tier. 23% 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.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.8/10. 33% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Cuyahoga Falls rate of 25.2%.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.

Court records carry 477 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 5.2% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 2.8% in 2018, is well off that peak. Among the 10 mapped neighborhoods of Cuyahoga Falls, it ranks #8 by risk, the lower third.

Only 26% 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, Cross Creek and Hampton Bluff score within a fraction of it.

Against average income of $70,342, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes.

With little internal variation, 3.6/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
