Vermont — financial stress by county

The Financial Stress Index (FSI) combines renter cost burden, eviction rate, and debt in collections into a 0–100 score. 1 of 14 Vermont counties have all three inputs and receive a score. Because 13 counties are missing eviction data, no state-wide average is shown here — averaging across the reporting subset would be misleading. Addison, VT has the highest score at 29.

Data note: The eviction rate component draws from the Princeton Eviction Lab's last national county release (2018). Post-pandemic eviction trends are not reflected in these scores — counties with high pre-2020 eviction activity may score differently if updated data were available. Rent burden and debt figures use 2024 ACS and Urban Institute data.
