Analysis
What drives eviction risk in BVQ District
The dominant input is economic stress at 8.7/10. The poverty rate is 35%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Cuyahoga County average of 43.0%.
Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 17.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Court records carry 694 eviction filings across 12 observed years.
Housing insecurity runs 22.6% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,036, 10% above the Cleveland average.
The worst year on record was 2012, when 17.4% 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 13.3% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 78th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
