· range 4.5–5.4
Sandusky Street Historic District spans 3 census tracts of Delaware, OH and houses 14,510 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.1/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Delaware baseline of 26.1%, 41% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 7.8/10. 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.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. Filings are well documented here: 1,036 across 3 observed tracts.
Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. At $1,134 a month, rents sit 12% under what the rest of Delaware commands. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 10.0% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 4.6% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 4 neighborhoods in Delaware. For a like-for-like read, Lexington Glen and Shelbourne Forest score within a fraction of it.
Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Its 3 tracts score within 0.9 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. 41% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
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.
