Food insecurity runs 9.0% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 6.6% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 146 evictions over 13 years of observation.
Filings peaked in 2008 at 24.7% of renter households. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Columbus. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 9.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 22% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
