Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sandwich

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.6/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 2.2/10. Food insecurity runs 6.6% against 17.8% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 20 evictions over 2 years of observation. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.0% against 11.3% nationally.

Filings peaked in 2015 at 3.3% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 2.0 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Barnstable County average of 4.8 closely. Average gross rent is $1,690, close to the Sandwich average.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
