37% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Food insecurity affects 48.4% of adults, 30.6 points above the national rate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Average gross rent is $772, 30% below the Columbus average of $1,106. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2/10. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Disability prevalence reaches 48.5% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

Social vulnerability runs high at 9.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $29,712.

57% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
