Northmoor Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,106 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Northmoor maps to a single census tract in Columbus, OH and houses 4,106 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 28.8% citywide, putting Northmoor 12.9% over its own city.

Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

19% 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. At $1,540 a month, rents sit 19% over what the rest of Columbus commands. The filing record is not thin: 27 evictions logged in this tract.

3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. 3.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Filing activity peaked in 2007 at 4.4% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 3.5% in 2015 against a 4.4% peak. That places it #110 of 120 neighborhoods in Columbus. At 21% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Italian Village and Walhalla Park Place score within a fraction of it.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
