At $442 a month, rents run 64% under what the rest of Wilmington commands. Food insecurity runs 47.1% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 41%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. It sits 1.6 points above the New Castle County average of 4.2.

15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 38% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the New Castle County average of 44.1%.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,700 filings here across 9 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2011 at 17.1% of renter households.
