Analysis
What drives eviction risk in North Andover
Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 21%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.1 points above the Essex County average of 6.0.
56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Essex County average of 50.7%. The voucher gap is 14.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
