Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Stillmanville

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. 50% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Washington County average of 40.2%. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.1/10.

The filing record is not thin: 46 evictions over 2 years of observation. Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally.

At $1,114 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Westerly commands. Filings peaked in 2015 at 3.1% of renter households. In a typical year about 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 42nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 15% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.1/10.

Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $96,048, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the RI average is 5.3, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler.

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.
