What drives eviction risk in Weir Village
The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 68% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 7.7/10. It sits 1.5 points above the Bristol County average of 6.0.
52% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Bristol County average of 45.9%. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.2/10.
Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.2/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 72 filings here across 1 tracked years.
The worst year on record was 2016, when 5.5% of renter households were served.
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.
