Franklin Industrial Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 4,020 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Franklin Industrial Park maps to a single census tract in Franklin Town, MA, population 4,020. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.3/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 58% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Franklin Town rate of 29.4%.

Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.9/10.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10. At $2,201 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Franklin Town commands.

3.1% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Food insecurity affects 7.8% of adults, 10.0 points below the national rate. At 28% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Against average income of $153,194, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
