Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Crestland Park
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.2/10. Against the Summit County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.
The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.
Court records carry 841 eviction filings across 17 observed years. Average gross rent is $811, 15% below the Akron average. Filings peaked in 2002 at 10.7% of renter households.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 8.1% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $60,285, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
