Brooklyn Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 2,999 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Brooklyn maps to a single census tract in Jacksonville, FL and houses 2,999 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

This is a renter market: 78% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10. 31% of renters spend 30% or more of household income on rent.

Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.3/10. Court records for this tract carry 276 eviction filings. Severe burden reaches 11%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Average gross rent is $1,262, 14% below the Jacksonville average of $1,465. Filing activity peaked in 2007 at 3.7% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 1.4% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #24 of 33 neighborhoods in Jacksonville. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
