Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Globe
The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. SNAP participation runs 36.4% against 15.2% nationally. It sits 2.2 points above the Providence County average of 5.7.
This is renter territory: 82% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. 52% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Providence County average of 43.2%.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.3/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Court records carry 143 eviction filings across 2 observed years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 10.2% of renter households.
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.
