Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Globe
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Severe burden reaches 32%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.
Against the Providence County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,373, 18% above the Woonsocket average. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 70 filings here across 2 tracked years.
On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7/10. The worst year on record was 2015, when 5.0% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Woonsocket. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
In a typical year about 5.2% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 86th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.1/10. Statewide the RI average is 5.3, so this tract runs 1.9 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
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.
