Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mansfield Center

The score leans hardest on tenant organizing strength at 7.9/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores below the Bristol County average of 6.2 and in line with the Massachusetts statewide average of 5.9. Within its own county it reads on the safer side for landlords.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 24 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 2.9% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 2.9% of renter households in 2016.

The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 44th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a middle-of-the-pack reading for social vulnerability.
