Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Biddeford
At $1,696 a month, rents run 31% over what the rest of Biddeford commands. On the softer side, economic stress reads 2/10. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
33% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the York County average of 39.3%. Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally.
That is riskier than roughly 49% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 3.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the York County average of 4.3 closely. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $93,266.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
