East Urban Heights Eviction Risk: Moderate

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. SNAP participation is 34.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Severe burden reaches 22%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Food insecurity affects 34.6% of adults, 16.8 points above the national rate. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. Average gross rent is $1,038, 6% below the Columbus average of $1,106.

Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $48,787.

37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
