Margate Eviction Risk: Moderate

31% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9.2/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $50,392 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.2/10.

At $1,388 a month, rents run 21% under what the rest of Margate commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 14 filings here across 4 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2016, when 2.4% of renter households were served.

In a typical year about 1.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #39,308 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
