Dover Eviction Risk: Lower

27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 57% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Kent County average of 44.8%.

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.8/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 568 filings here across 9 tracked years. Against the Kent County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 52.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 33.2% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 8.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the DE average is 4.1, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Average gross rent is $1,411, close to the Dover average. Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $90,227.

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.
