Lambeth Riding Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 8,370 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Lambeth Riding takes in 2 census tracts of North Star, DE, population 8,370. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Running cool is economic stress, at 1.1/10. On the softer side is housing-court posture, at 1.6/10.

The severe-burden share is 13%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Food insecurity affects 5.4% of adults, 12.4 points below the national rate.

SNAP participation is 3.7% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Cost burden runs 14% against 9.0% citywide, putting Lambeth Riding 4.9% over its own city.

Filings are well documented here: 36 across 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2018, when filings touched 27.5% of renter households. Judgments average 2.8% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

At 13% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Its 2 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
