Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Avalon Oaks

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

At $3,051 a month, rents run 27% over what the rest of Wilmington commands. Cost burden runs roughly one in three here against 43.0% across Middlesex County. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 2.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 7.3% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 51 filings here across 5 tracked years.

SNAP participation runs 8.0% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2013, when 6.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 3.6% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #54,273 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 1.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
