Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Gloucester
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.5/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.2/10.
Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.6/10. Food insecurity runs 8.7% against 17.8% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.3% against 11.3% nationally.
Cost burden runs 55% here against 50.7% across Essex County. That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
Social vulnerability reads 2.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
