Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Eastland
The poverty rate is 34%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.4/10.
roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Franklin County average of 41.6%. Food insecurity runs 31.3% against 17.8% nationally. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8/10. It sits 1.3 points above the Franklin County average of 4.4.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 611 filings here across 13 tracked years.
Filings peaked in 2004 at 26.1% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,189, 8% below the Columbus average. In a typical year about 12.6% of renter households face a filing.
That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
