Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Arlington
The dominant input is economic stress at 9.7/10. SNAP participation runs 37.7% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Food insecurity runs 36.7% against 17.8% nationally. 81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Against the Summit County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.
On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Court records carry 1,154 eviction filings across 17 observed years.
Filings peaked in 2004 at 16.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Akron. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
