Victorian Village Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,252 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4/10 · range 4–4

Victorian Village maps to a single census tract in Columbus, OH, population 2,252. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4/10, Moderate tier. Against a Columbus baseline of 28.8%, 43% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

79% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,567, 21% above the Columbus average of $1,295. Disability prevalence reaches 16.0% against a 31.5% national average, which raises the odds a reasonable-accommodation request accompanies any dispute.

Running cool is economic stress, at 2.6/10. The filing record is not thin: 238 evictions logged in this tract.

CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 6.5% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 5.1% of renter households.

The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2015, is well off that peak. Among the 120 mapped neighborhoods of Columbus, it ranks #88 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Olde Towne East and Summit Plain.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
