Bissel Eviction Risk: Lower

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.7/10. At $1,654 a month, rents sit 25% over what the rest of Bristol commands. The severe-burden share is 19%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 1.8/10. Against a Bristol baseline of 33.9%, 29% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Court records for this tract carry 123 eviction filings. The voucher gap is 14.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.

Food insecurity affects 7.4% of adults, 10.4 points below the national rate. The worst year on record was 2017, when filings touched 4.0% of renter households.

SNAP participation is 7.1% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Judgments average 1.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Only 22% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

Against average income of $118,235, annual rent is only 17%, a wide affordability cushion.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
