Prattville Eviction Risk: Elevated , Everett

Cost burden runs 56% here against 43.0% across Middlesex County. 26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.3/10.

The filing record is not thin: 24 evictions over 5 years of observation. At $1,912 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Malden commands. It sits 0.6 points above the Middlesex County average of 6.3.

Filings peaked in 2012 at 3.3% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

In a typical year about 2.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 2.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
