It sits 2.3 points below the Athens County average of 5.3. The clearest offset is state political climate at 2.4/10. 16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Well under the midpoint, local political climate reads 2.4/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10.

Court records carry 72 eviction filings across 15 observed years. Filings peaked in 2007 at 3.3% of renter households.

In a typical year about 1.8% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 11% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 5.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $72,093, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
