The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 24.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 2/10. It sits 1.3 points above the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. Cost burden runs 49% here against 43.0% across Cuyahoga County.

Court records carry 675 eviction filings across 12 observed years. The worst year on record was 2015, when 16.7% 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.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
