Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Providence Center
Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8/10. Against Providence County at 43.2%, 50% of renters here are cost-burdened.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.4/10. 12% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 13 filings here across 2 tracked years.
It sits 0.8 points below the Providence County average of 5.7. The worst year on record was 2015, when 1.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 1.2% of renter households face a filing.
Nationally it ranks #34,278 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.8/10. Rent consumes only 16% of average household income of $91,944, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
