Kensington Village spans 2 census tracts of North Zanesville, OH and houses 9,175 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.9/10, Lower tier. Against a North Zanesville baseline of 16.8%, 49% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
23% 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. Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.1/10.
Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.5. A 1.5-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Court records for this tract carry 247 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 4.4% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 1.4% in 2018, is well off that peak. Against average income of $58,444, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion.
Average gross rent runs $893, close to the North Zanesville average. 50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
