Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Walpole
Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. It sits 1.8 points below the Norfolk County average of 5.6. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Food insecurity runs 7.7% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.1/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.7% against 11.3% nationally.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 3.1/10. On the national scale it lands near the 38th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Against average income of $174,975, annual rent is just 16%. Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 2.4 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.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
