Vassor Village maps to a single census tract in Columbus, OH and houses 1,952 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 46% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The poverty rate is 20%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
16.4% 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 filing record is not thin: 1,056 evictions logged in this tract.
SNAP participation is 25.6% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 23.1% of renter households.
Recent filings have not receded much: 21.6% in 2015 against a 23.1% peak. At $1,203 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of Columbus commands.
Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #3 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $46,809.
One tract means one number: 5.7/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
