Greenfield Eviction Risk: Elevated

The main counterweight is court filing pressure at 0.7/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Against the Franklin County average of 5.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.9 points. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.8/10. 59% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Franklin County average of 50.0%. Average gross rent is $848, 23% below the Greenfield average.

SNAP participation runs 28.1% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 557 filings here across 13 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2013, when 9.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 6.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
