Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Holbrook
39% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Norfolk County average of 48.1%. Against the Norfolk County average of 5.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.1/10.
That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 21% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.5/10. Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.
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.
