Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Westerville
32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8/10.
It sits 1.4 points below the Franklin County average of 4.4. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.1/10. SNAP participation runs 3.9% against 15.2% nationally.
Housing insecurity runs 5.0% against 14.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $122,841, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
