Briggsdale Eviction Risk: Moderate

3 census tracts · pop 11,466 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 4.9–5.7

Briggsdale spans 3 census tracts of Columbus, OH, population 11,466. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.1/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 42% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 14% 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.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.5/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

Court records carry 1,133 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $1,089, 16% below the Columbus average of $1,295. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 23.5% of renter households.

That places it #55 of 120 neighborhoods in Columbus. Judgments average 6.0% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Rent takes 20% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. The 3 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.8 points apart at the extremes.

38% 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. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
