Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dyerville
Food insecurity runs 37.4% against 17.8% nationally. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 76% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
Against Providence County at 43.2%, 52% of renters here are cost-burdened. The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 7.5/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.6/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 337 filings here across 2 tracked years. At $1,229 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Providence commands.
Filings peaked in 2015 at 12.7% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 11.2% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
