Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dover

At $1,229 a month, rents run 43% over what the rest of Dover commands. What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9.6/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 9.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 28.7% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.1/10.

14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 1.3 points above the Hillsborough County average of 4.2.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The filing record is not thin: 58 evictions over 11 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2015 at 5.7% of renter households.

In a typical year about 2.1% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
