Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Mentor
What moves this score most is supply constraint at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Lake County average of 4.8 and below the Ohio statewide average of 5.1. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
