Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Deep Creek
Against Chesapeake City at 49.2%, around two-thirds of renters here are cost-burdened. At $2,330 a month, rents run 47% over what the rest of Chesapeake commands. The voucher gap is 37.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, supply constraint reads 8.7/10.
Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. It sits 0.6 points below the Chesapeake City average of 3.6.
Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 19% 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.5/10.
Statewide the VA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.2 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $127,250.
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.
