Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Hume Residential Area

Cost burden runs roughly three in four here against 50.9% across Alachua County. Annualized rent equals 84% of average household income of $11,625, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 82%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 100% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

At $817 a month, rents run 37% under what the rest of Gainesville commands. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 46.5% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.3 points above the Alachua County average of 4.1.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 3 filings here across 3 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2012 at 4.2% of renter households.

In a typical year about 4.0% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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.
