Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bridgeville

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.

At $960 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Bridgeville commands. It sits 0.9 points above the Sussex County average of 4.0.

On the national scale it lands near the 59th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.7/10. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $67,955, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the DE average is 4.1, so this tract runs 0.8 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
