Summit View Forest spans 4 census tracts of Columbus, OH and houses 21,291 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
37% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Columbus rate of 28.8%. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.8/10.
Scores across the 4 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.7. A 1.7-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
Filings are well documented here: 699 across 3 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 7.5% of renter households. SNAP participation is 6.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 9.6% of adults, 8.2 points below the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 2.5% in 2015, is well off that peak.
Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #99 by risk, the lower third. Against average income of $92,726, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.7 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
