Tallmadge Eviction Risk: Lower

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.2/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Against the Summit County average of 4.1, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

Food insecurity runs 8.6% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 6.1% against 15.2% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 92 filings here across 17 tracked years.

The worst year on record was 2007, when 10.5% of renter households were served. 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 4.5% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 3% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $114,724, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler.

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.
