Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Shawomet
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.2/10. The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.
It sits 1.4 points above the Kent County average of 4.3. Average gross rent is $1,114, 18% below the Warwick average. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.1/10.
That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 24% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.6/10. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $78,382, an unusually wide affordability cushion.
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.
