Millbrook maps to a single census tract in Columbus, OH, population 1,957. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.7/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 36%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. 27.2% 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.
The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Set annual rent against average household income of $33,491 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
This is a renter market: 79% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,071, 17% below the Columbus average of $1,295. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.4/10.
The filing record is not thin: 2,941 evictions logged in this tract. 19.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 88.8% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 17.1% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third.
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.
