Cottage Park spans 2 census tracts of Winthrop Town, MA and houses 4,963 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 4.5/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 31.8% citywide, putting Cottage Park 14.6% over its own city.
28% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

3.7% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Food insecurity affects 8.6% of adults, 9.2 points below the national rate. The worst year on record was 2015, when filings touched 3.3% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 1.4% in 2016, is well off that peak. At $2,220 a month, rents sit 8% over what the rest of Winthrop Town commands.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Cottage Hill and Winthrop Highlands. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.
Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $128,561.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
