Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Bolivar Homes
What pushes it up most is housing-court posture at 8.8/10. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
SNAP participation runs 34.3% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.8/10.
Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $27,672, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.7/10. Cost burden runs 53% here against 44.4% across Bolivar County.
At $820 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Cleveland commands. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 9.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
