Northborough Eviction Risk: Lower , High Point

Average gross rent is $1,755, 57% above the High Point average. The voucher gap is 52.6%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.5/10. 33% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Guilford County average of 44.7%.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Against the Guilford County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. SNAP participation runs 6.5% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 9.2% against 17.8% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 54 evictions over 5 years of observation. The worst year on record was 2014, when 3.3% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 2.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
