Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Togus

The clearest offset is economic stress at 2.9/10. The voucher gap is 17.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Social vulnerability reads 6.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Kennebec County average of 4.3 closely.

Average gross rent runs $1,368 a month. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $82,586.

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.
