Brandon Oaks Eviction Risk: Lower

37% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Sussex rate of 26.0%. The severe-burden share is 17%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The filing record is not thin: 33 evictions logged in this tract.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,167, 15% below the Sussex average of $1,369. 3.7% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

SNAP participation is 6.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Filing activity peaked in 2013 at 2.2% of renter households. Judgments average 1.1% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order.

Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Against average income of $91,522, annual rent is only 15%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3.8/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
