Mount Auburn Eviction Risk: Moderate

roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, higher than the Belmont rate of 27.4%. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The filing record is not thin: 13 evictions logged in this tract. Food insecurity affects 7.4% of adults, 10.4 points below the national rate. 3.4% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 0.6% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 0.6% in 2016 against a 0.6% peak.

Among the 5 mapped neighborhoods of Belmont, it ranks #2 by risk, the middle third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Cushing Square and Waverley.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0.3 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

Average gross rent runs $2,465, close to the Belmont average.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
