Bannon Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 5,309 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.2–4.5

Bannon is a 2-tract neighborhood of Columbus, OH and houses 5,309 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 21%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 37% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Court records carry 2,361 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 20.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 12.3% in 2015, is well off that peak.

Average gross rent is $1,203, 7% below the Columbus average of $1,295. Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #80 by risk, the lower third.

For a like-for-like read, Berwick and Southern Orchards score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 19% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. 56% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

With little internal variation, 4.3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
