Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Ardens Historic District

Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10.

At $1,411 a month, rents run 25% over what the rest of Arden commands. Against the New Castle County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points.

SNAP participation runs 5.3% against 15.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 48 filings here across 9 tracked years.

Housing insecurity runs 6.2% against 14.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2015, when 3.7% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.5% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 11% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

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.
