Daysville Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 7,354 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.4/10 · range 5.4–5.4

Daysville takes in 2 census tracts of Gainesville, FL and houses 7,354 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Gainesville baseline of 42.9%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

95% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Set annual rent against average household income of $37,802 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The severe-burden share is 27%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The poverty rate is 35%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. What pushes the score up most is economic stress at 8.8/10.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 2/10. Filings are well documented here: 726 across 2 observed tracts. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.8/10.

The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 8.8% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 2.2% in 2018, is well off that peak. Among the 15 mapped neighborhoods of Gainesville, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.

For a like-for-like read, Robinswood and University Village South score within a fraction of it. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
