Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Fall River
SNAP participation runs 48.2% against 15.2% nationally. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10.

Annualized rent equals 44% of average household income of $24,069, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Food insecurity runs 36.8% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 31%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $890, 23% below the Fall River average.
Running hot, economic stress reads 7.9/10.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
