Victoria Park Eviction Risk: Moderate

7 census tracts · pop 23,758 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.1/10 · range 3–5.4

Victoria Park spans 7 census tracts of Fort Lauderdale, FL, population 23,758. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.1/10, in the Moderate tier. 53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Fort Lauderdale rate of 34.6%.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 5.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.9/10. Filings are well documented here: 1,935 across 7 observed tracts. Average gross rent is $1,634, 12% below the Fort Lauderdale average of $1,854.

Filing activity peaked in 2003 at 18.3% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

The most recent observed rate, 5.3% in 2016, is well off that peak. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $89,274. 52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 4.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
