Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Fruitland Park

What moves this score most is tenant organizing strength at 8.3/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Painesville, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

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

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 495 eviction filings here over 14 tracked years, with about 6.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 13.6% of renter households in 2013.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 47th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
