New Castle Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

Against a New Castle baseline of 23.6%, 17% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 7.6/10.

Court records for this tract carry 392 eviction filings. Running cool is housing-court posture, at 2.6/10. The severe-burden share is 9%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 11.4% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 7.7% in 2018 against a 11.4% peak. Among the 6 mapped neighborhoods of New Castle, it ranks #6 by risk, the lower third.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Rogers Manor and Riveredge Park. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,754, close to the New Castle average.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $100,922. 50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3.3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
