Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lee-Seville

54% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Cuyahoga County average of 43.0%. This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. SNAP participation runs 29.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.

The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

Housing insecurity runs 23.6% against 14.2% nationally. 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.

Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.2/10. Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.
