Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Eighty-Ninth Street Historic District
The dominant input is economic stress at 8.9/10. This is renter territory: 84% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Set annual rent against average income of $41,688 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 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 18.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The filing record is not thin: 717 evictions over 12 years of observation.
Housing insecurity runs 21.7% against 14.2% nationally.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
