Squantum Eviction Risk: Elevated

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.2/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Average gross rent is $2,530, 19% above the Quincy average of $2,118. Against a Quincy baseline of 29.5%, 24% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. 3.8% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt.

Food insecurity affects 8.9% of adults, 8.9 points below the national rate. Among the 8 mapped neighborhoods of Quincy, it ranks #8 by risk, the lower third. Only 20% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

For a like-for-like read, Marina Bay and Wollaston Heights score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $140,781.

One tract means one number: 6.5/10 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.
