Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lindenwald

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.8/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the Butler County average of 4.3. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,047 filings here across 13 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,137, 13% above the Hamilton average.

The worst year on record was 2011, when 13.9% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 10.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
