Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Prides Corner

Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 31% here against 38.5% across Cumberland County.

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. Against the Cumberland County average of 5.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

Food insecurity runs 7.7% against 17.8% nationally. Running cool, court filing pressure reads 2.8/10. At $1,598 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of Westbrook commands.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 17% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 1.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, 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.
