Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Forest Hills
The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1.3/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.3/10.
It sits 1.6 points below the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.
SNAP participation runs 4.0% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 50 evictions over 12 years of observation. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.7% against 11.3% nationally.
Average gross rent is $1,240, 10% above the Bratenahl average. Filings peaked in 2008 at 8.5% of renter households.
This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Cleveland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.3% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
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.
