· range 4.3–4.3
Barefoot Bay spans 2 census tracts of Micco, FL, population 5,302. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 9.5/10. Set annual rent against average household income of $45,774 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.1/10.
57% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Micco rate of 47.9%. Running hot is housing-court posture at 7.7/10.
At 5% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0 points apart at the extremes. Average gross rent runs $1,365, close to the Micco average.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
