Lee Eviction Risk: Moderate

Cost burden runs 62% here against 46.7% across Berkshire County. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.7/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.6/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.5/10. Food insecurity runs 8.7% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 143 evictions over 10 years of observation.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.9% against 11.3% nationally. The worst year on record was 2012, when 3.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 2.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 72nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 22% 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
