Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Linden Heights
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 387 filings here across 17 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2018, when 6.0% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Dayton. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 4.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 44% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.5/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 42% of renters.
