Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Hayden Row
At $3,077 a month, rents run 152% over what the rest of Hopkinton commands. It sits 2.8 points below the Middlesex County average of 6.3. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.
Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.5/10.
Food insecurity runs 7.0% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 2.7% against 11.3% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $215,130, annual rent is just 17%.
Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 2.7 points cooler.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
