Stearnsville Eviction Risk: Moderate

At $696 a month, rents sit 39% under what the rest of Pittsfield commands. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.6/10.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 7.9/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Court records carry 99 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.3/10.

4.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 5.7% of renter households.

Food insecurity affects 9.6% of adults, 8.2 points below the national rate. The most recent observed rate, 0.5% in 2016, is well off that peak. Only 15% 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 8% 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.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
