Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Maple Ridge

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.2/10.

Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 48.1% across Norfolk County. Adults with no health insurance runs 4.1% against 11.3% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally. Against the Norfolk County average of 5.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 80th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 20% 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. Social vulnerability reads 3.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, 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.
