Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Ocean Grove
The heaviest input here is rent-control risk at 9.2/10. That part comes from the wider legal climate rather than the tract itself. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Ocean Grove, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.
Set against its neighbors, this tract scores about the same as the Bristol County average of 6.2 and above the Massachusetts statewide average of 5.9. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 10 eviction filings here over 1 tracked years, with about 3.0% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 3.0% of renter households in 2016.
The tract is predominantly White and ranks around the 28th percentile nationally on the CDC Social Vulnerability Index, a measure of how exposed residents are to housing and economic shocks. That is a relatively low-vulnerability reading.
For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
