Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Price’s Run

What moves this score most is economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Wilmington eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the New Castle County average of 5.7 and above the Delaware statewide average of 5.6. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

In CDC survey modeling, about 28.8% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 21.6% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 741 eviction filings here over 9 tracked years, with about 23.7% of renter households facing a filing in a typical year. Filings peaked at 19.2% of renter households in 2018.

For a landlord, this is a tract where process discipline pays off. Clean paperwork and steady screening keep the elevated risk manageable.
