Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Spencer
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.9/10. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10. 13% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 5 filings here across 2 tracked years.
SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.5% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2018 at 1.5% of renter households.
In a typical year about 0.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10.
