Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Bay Vista

Cost burden runs 87% here against 42.5% across Sussex County. The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.1/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Average gross rent is $1,348, close to the Rehoboth Beach average.

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.
