Pleasant Hill Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,108 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Pleasant Hill maps to a single census tract in Oak Hill, ME and houses 5,108 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1/10.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 1.1/10. At $1,231 a month, rents sit 29% under what the rest of Oak Hill commands.

Severe burden reaches 17%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. around a third of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Oak Hill rate of 28.6%.

SNAP participation is 5.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. 4.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Rent takes 11% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, 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.
