Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sharon

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.3/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.3/10. It sits 1.6 points below the Norfolk County average of 5.6.

At $3,151 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Sharon commands. Adults with no health insurance runs 2.5% against 11.3% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 6.5% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.1/10.

That is riskier than roughly 42% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 5% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.9/10.

Against average income of $211,635, annual rent is just 18%. Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 2.2 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for roughly one in two of renters.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
