Squires Glen maps to a single census tract in Newburyport, MA and houses 7,360 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Newburyport rate of 28.1%.
Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 2.4/10.
CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 5.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 2.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $1,461 a month, rents sit 8% under what the rest of Newburyport commands.
Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Newburyport, it ranks #2 by risk, the middle third. Only 26% 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. Against average income of $123,221, annual rent is only 14%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
