Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Wilmington

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. The severe-burden share is 24%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Housing insecurity runs 25.5% against 14.2% nationally. SNAP participation runs 24.3% against 15.2% nationally.

Average gross rent is $1,649, 15% below the Los Angeles average. It sits 0.8 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
