Lakeshore maps to a single census tract in Columbus, GA and houses 2,026 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs roughly one in two against 30.3% citywide, putting Lakeshore 18.3% over its own city.
This is a renter market: 86% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
17% 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. On the softer side is economic stress, at 2.4/10.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. At $981 a month, rents sit 11% under what the rest of Columbus commands. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #35 by risk, the lower third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Kingston and Innsbrook. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $47,733.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.2/10 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.
