Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Kettering
The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 7.4/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Montgomery County average of 5.4 and in line with the Ohio statewide average of 5.1. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.
In CDC survey modeling, about 9.8% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 7.3% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 185 eviction filings here over 17 tracked years, with about 1.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.5% of renter households in 2007.
