North Kenova Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 4,124 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

North Kenova maps to a single census tract in South Point, OH and houses 4,124 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.6/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.9/10. The severe-burden share is 12%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. 23% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, slightly above the South Point rate of 18.6%.

On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 3/10. At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Against average income of $77,641, annual rent is only 13%, a wide affordability cushion.

Average gross rent runs $850, close to the South Point average.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
