Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.7/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.7/10.

The most recent observed rate, 9.0% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of Bon Air, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third. For a like-for-like read, Greenfield and Brighton Green score within a fraction of it.

Average gross rent runs $1,709, close to the Bon Air average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $81,476. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.9/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
