Analysis

What drives eviction risk in North Andover

Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.1 points above the Essex County average of 6.0.

56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Essex County average of 50.7%. The voucher gap is 14.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.1/10. Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent runs $2,244 a month. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $87,222. 50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
