Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Pleasant Grove

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 8.6/10. At $938 a month, rents run 29% over what the rest of Youngstown commands. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.9/10.

Court records carry 167 eviction filings across 7 observed years. 8% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 0.6 points below the Mahoning County average of 4.5.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 12.9% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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.

In a typical year about 9.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #50,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. 39% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $57,083.
