Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ekerts Corners

The heaviest input here is tenant organizing strength at 8.6/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Niles, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Trumbull County average of 5.3 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 11.0% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 7.9% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 28 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 5.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 5.0% of renter households in 2016.
