Benning Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

Food insecurity affects 60.6% of adults, 42.8 points above the national rate. At $663 a month, rents sit 40% under what the rest of Columbus commands.

This is a renter market: 89% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 9.2/10. The poverty rate is 37%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 27.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $27,431.

One tract means one number: 5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
