Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Peabody

Against Essex County at 50.7%, 80% of renters here are cost-burdened. The main counterweight 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. At $2,238 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of Peabody commands.

Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally. The voucher gap is 14.0%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.8% against 11.3% nationally. On the national scale it lands near the 58th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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.

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.
