Analysis
What drives eviction risk in St. Andrews
What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.4/10. 17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.5/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 2.6/10.
Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,059 filings here across 9 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2012 at 42.3% of renter households.
In a typical year about 24.1% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 44th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 21% 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.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.5/10. It tracks the New Castle County average of 4.2 closely. Average gross rent is $1,731, close to the Bear average.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
