Port Charlotte Eviction Risk: Moderate

64% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Charlotte County average of 48.6%. Pulling hardest the other way is eviction-process difficulty at 1.2/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $66,339 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The voucher gap is 24.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Against the Charlotte County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $1,822 a month, rents run 17% over what the rest of Port Charlotte commands.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 18 filings here across 1 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2015, when 6.1% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 6.1% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 13% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
