Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Dennis
The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. At $1,606 a month, rents run 34% over what the rest of Dennis commands. It sits 1.8 points below the Barnstable County average of 4.8.
On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.4/10.
SNAP participation runs 6.6% against 15.2% nationally. Court records carry 8 eviction filings across 2 observed years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Filings peaked in 2015 at 3.2% of renter households. In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing.
On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 12% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10.
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.
