Weinland Park takes in 2 census tracts of Columbus, OH, population 5,930. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.7/10, Moderate tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Columbus rate of 28.8%.
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 50%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Set annual rent against average household income of $36,982 and the ratio lands at 43%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is a renter market: 89% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 15.7% 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.
Filings are well documented here: 1,807 across 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2003, when filings touched 16.9% of renter households. Food insecurity affects 26.5% of adults, 8.7 points above the national rate.
The most recent observed rate, 6.3% in 2015, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 120 neighborhoods in Columbus.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
