Reese Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,785 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.9/10 · range 3.9–3.9

Reese maps to a single census tract in Obetz, OH, population 4,785. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.9/10, Lower tier. 18% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, lower than the Obetz rate of 27.1%.

The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.4/10. The filing record is not thin: 221 evictions logged in this tract.

10% 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. Filing activity peaked in 2009 at 7.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.3% in 2015, is well off that peak.

At $1,280 a month, rents sit 7% under what the rest of Obetz commands. Against average income of $80,309, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.

32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
