Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Peabody

The severe-burden share is 34%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

It sits 1.2 points below the Essex County average of 6.0. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.6/10.

Food insecurity runs 9.4% against 17.8% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.7% against 11.3% nationally.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 7% 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 2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 1.4 points cooler. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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.
