Winthrop Village Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,343 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Winthrop Village maps to a single census tract in Cochituate, MA, population 5,343. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10.

Cost burden runs 34% against 23.6% citywide, putting Winthrop Village 10.2% over its own city. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 4.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.7/10. Court records for this tract carry 8 eviction filings.

3.0% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filing activity peaked in 2014 at 1.7% of renter households.

On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. Recent filings have not receded much: 1.3% in 2015 against a 1.7% peak.

At 7% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 1%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
