Lexington Glen is a 2-tract neighborhood of Delaware, OH, population 8,906. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.3/10, in the Moderate tier. 49% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Delaware rate of 26.1%.
Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10.
Filings are well documented here: 250 across 2 observed tracts. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.8/10. Food insecurity affects 8.6% of adults, 9.2 points below the national rate.
SNAP participation is 6.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 4.2% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 1.1% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 4 neighborhoods in Delaware. For a like-for-like read, Shelbourne Forest and Sandusky Street Historic District score within a fraction of it.
Against average income of $82,700, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
