Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Murray Hill
The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 63%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 100% 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.
Set annual rent against average income of $35,272 and the ratio lands at 48%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. 56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Franklin County average of 41.6%. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.
Adults with no health insurance runs 25.3% against 11.3% nationally. Disability prevalence runs 44.4% against 31.5% nationally. 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. Court records carry 1,142 eviction filings across 13 observed years. Filings peaked in 2003 at 19.0% of renter households.
Average gross rent is $1,400, 8% above the Columbus average. In a typical year about 13.1% of renter households face a filing.
