Apple Creek Eviction Risk: Lower

At $700 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Apple Creek commands. The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty at 2/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.4/10.

The filing record is not thin: 79 evictions over 12 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2003, when 5.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 25% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $72,525, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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.
