Pineland Park maps to a single census tract in Hoover, AL, population 5,774. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 46% against 29.1% citywide, putting Pineland Park 17.3% over its own city.
The voucher gap is 45.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears. The strongest single driver of the headline number is supply constraint at 9.6/10.
Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. At $1,844 a month, rents sit 27% over what the rest of Hoover commands. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 1.5/10.
19% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation is 5.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity affects 9.5% of adults, 8.3 points below the national rate.
Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Hoover, it ranks #4 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Polo Trace and Arbor Hill. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
