Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Henlopen Keys

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 3.8% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 2.6% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Sussex County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 12% 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. Social vulnerability reads 1.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Rent consumes only 10% of average household income of $155,288, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the DE average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
