Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Indianola Park

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Food insecurity runs 6.7% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 1.2 points below the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Cuyahoga County average of 43.0%.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 603 filings here across 12 tracked years. Severe burden reaches 9%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Housing insecurity runs 6.6% against 14.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2010, when 8.9% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 7.5% of renter households face a filing.

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.
