Quincy Center Eviction Risk: Elevated

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.4/10. It sits 1.9 points above the Norfolk County average of 5.6.

Cost burden runs 38% here against 48.1% across Norfolk County. 19% 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 high side, local political climate reads 8.3/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Quincy. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #10,320 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Average gross rent is $2,280, close to the Quincy average. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $97,708.

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.
