West Carrollton Eviction Risk: Moderate

At $705 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of West Carrollton commands. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.5/10.

36% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Montgomery County average of 42.9%. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 399 filings here across 17 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2003, when 6.4% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 5.1% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
