Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hamilton
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.8/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.8/10. Running cool, state political climate reads 2.4/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 902 filings here across 13 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,159, 15% above the Hamilton average.
Cost burden runs 44% here against 39.6% across Butler County. The worst year on record was 2011, when 17.3% of renter households were served.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 10.4% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 51st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
Social vulnerability reads 5.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Butler County average of 4.3 closely.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
