Murray Hill takes in 4 census tracts of Lincoln Village, OH, population 13,480. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 42% against 29.4% citywide, putting Murray Hill 12.7% over its own city.
The 4 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 3 to 5.7, a 2.7-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.3/10.
24% 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. The poverty rate is 23%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. 16.6% 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. Court records carry 4,234 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts.
Running cool is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. Food insecurity affects 28.1% of adults, 10.3 points above the national rate.
Filing activity peaked in 2008 at 34.4% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 14.6% in 2015, is well off that peak. Average gross rent is $1,120, 7% above the Lincoln Village average of $1,043.
Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $52,169. 55% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
