Rose Hill is a one-tract neighborhood of Columbus, GA, population 2,059. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 61% against 30.3% citywide, putting Rose Hill 31.1% over its own city.
29.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, against a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 10/10.
The poverty rate is 56%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. SNAP participation is 53.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Set annual rent against average household income of $17,295 and the ratio lands at 48%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Severe burden reaches 34%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
At $699 a month, rents sit 37% under what the rest of Columbus commands. 85% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.3/10. Among the 48 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Benning Park and City Village.
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.
