Analysis
What drives eviction risk in West Park
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 396 filings here across 12 tracked years. It sits 0.6 points above the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6.
The worst year on record was 2012, when 9.1% 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 9.2% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 65% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.3/10.
Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.
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.
