Charlestown Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs 72% here against 40.2% across Washington County. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

Average gross rent is $1,340, 16% above the Charlestown average. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 17 filings here across 2 tracked years.

Housing insecurity runs 6.6% against 14.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2015 at 4.1% of renter households.

In a typical year about 3.1% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #41,206 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 18% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Statute speed, court posture and rent-regulation exposure are inherited from Charlestown eviction risk rather than measured on these blocks; the economic and supply components are the tract-level part of the score. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.6/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
