Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Abbey Village

79% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, far above the Palm Beach County average of 53.5%. Annualized rent equals 52% of average household income of $51,540, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The main counterweight is state political climate at 1.5/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.4/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.6/10.

Against the Palm Beach County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. The filing record is not thin: 90 evictions over 10 years of observation.

At $2,242 a month, rents run 14% over what the rest of Delray Beach commands. The worst year on record was 2011, when 2.5% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.2% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
