Main Street Historic District Eviction Risk: Elevated

· range 6.3–6.3
Main Street Historic District maps to a single census tract in Bowling Green, OH, population 3,887. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.3/10, in the Elevated tier. 51% 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.
69% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Bowling Green rate of 33.1%. The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 48%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $26,613 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. This is a renter market: 79% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Running hot is housing-court posture at 8.3/10. The filing record is not thin: 26 evictions logged in this tract. Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 0.9% of renter households.
That places it #1 of 6 neighborhoods in Bowling Green. Judgments average 0.7% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Bellard Business Center and Downtown score within a fraction of it.
Average gross rent runs $868, close to the Bowling Green average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 6.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
