Eaton Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,826 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.3/10 · range 3.3–3.3

Eaton Heights maps to a single census tract in Manchester, NH and houses 5,826 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.3/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs 64% against 30.0% citywide, putting Eaton Heights 34.0% over its own city.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1/10. 15% 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.

SNAP participation is 5.2% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 8.4% of adults, 9.4 points below the national rate. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 3/10.

Average gross rent is $1,436, 8% below the Manchester average of $1,564. That places it #22 of 22 neighborhoods in Manchester.

Only 6% 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. Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3.3/10 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.
