Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mayfair

The dominant input is economic stress at 9.6/10. Food insecurity runs 39.4% against 17.8% nationally. Cost burden runs 55% here against 41.6% across Franklin County.

The poverty rate is 39%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $34,297, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

This is renter territory: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Housing insecurity runs 29.3% against 14.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8/10.

Average gross rent is $1,016, 22% below the Columbus average. Against the Franklin County average of 4.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
