Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Knowltons Corner

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. At $390 a month, rents run 61% under what the rest of Cincinnati commands. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 39.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

The poverty rate is 61%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Hamilton County average of 42.5%. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

78% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Disability prevalence runs 46.6% against 31.5% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.3/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Hamilton County average of 4.4. Court records carry 2,854 eviction filings across 16 observed years. The worst year on record was 2005, when 31.1% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 19.9% of renter households face a filing.

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