Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Murrays Haven

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 2.4/10. Severe burden reaches 12%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.6/10. Food insecurity runs 8.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 6.0% against 14.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 13.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 0.6 points below the Sussex County average of 4.0.

Average gross rent is $1,587, 11% below the Ocean View average. Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 12% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.1/10.

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.
