Blake Corner Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,140 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Blake Corner is a one-tract neighborhood of Lisbon, ME, population 5,140. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Lisbon rate of 31.8%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.4/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.7/10. At $854 a month, rents sit 6% over what the rest of Lisbon commands.

Only 26% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Rent takes 14% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
