Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Northeast Columbus

SNAP participation runs 38.3% against 15.2% nationally. Cost burden runs 56% here against 41.6% across Franklin County. 89% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.5/10. Set annual rent against average income of $43,732 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Housing insecurity runs 29.0% against 14.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, economic stress reads 8.1/10. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8/10.

Against the Franklin County average of 4.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. Nationally it ranks #21,564 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.5/10.

Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Average gross rent is $1,275, close to the Columbus average.

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.
