Analysis
What drives eviction risk in East Dennis
The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.7/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.8/10.
11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 16 eviction filings across 2 observed years.
Adults with no health insurance runs 3.0% against 11.3% nationally. SNAP participation runs 7.9% against 15.2% nationally.
Against the Barnstable County average of 4.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. The worst year on record was 2016, when 3.8% of renter households were served.
In a typical year about 3.5% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 16% 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
