City View Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,762 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5/10 · range 5–5

City View Heights maps to a single census tract in Columbus, GA, population 1,762. The Eviction Risk Score is 5/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 30.3%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 47%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Food insecurity affects 54.2% of adults, 36.4 points above the national rate. Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

This is a renter market: 86% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

26.9% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $814 a month, rents sit 26% under what the rest of Columbus commands.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
