Arlington Park maps to a single census tract in Columbus, OH, population 2,626. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 63% against 28.8% citywide, putting Arlington Park 34.5% over its own city.
27.8% 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. SNAP participation is 47.5% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 9.2/10. The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
27% 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. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
This is a renter market: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Average gross rent is $991, 23% below the Columbus average of $1,295. Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.9/10.
The filing record is not thin: 950 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 15.7% of renter households.
One tract means one number: 5.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
