East Beechwold Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,405 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

East Beechwold is a one-tract neighborhood of Columbus, OH, population 3,405. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 45% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. At $1,597 a month, rents sit 23% over what the rest of Columbus commands. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Court records for this tract carry 95 eviction filings. SNAP participation is 4.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 10.3% of renter households.

The voucher gap is 10.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The most recent observed rate, 0.3% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #110 by risk, the lower third.

Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
