Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Trenton

The score leans hardest on supply constraint at 7.8/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Trenton, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Butler County average of 5.5 and above the Ohio statewide average of 5.1. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 108 eviction filings here over 13 tracked years, with about 6.3% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 8.4% of renter households in 2010.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 24th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
