Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Wickford
Average gross rent is $3,076, 40% above the North Bethesda average. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.2/10. The voucher gap is 32.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. SNAP participation runs 2.6% against 15.2% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 4.6% against 14.2% nationally.
On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 7% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.1/10. Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $243,125, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
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.
