Miramar Terrace Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 9,857 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Miramar Terrace spans 2 census tracts of Jacksonville, FL and houses 9,857 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. about half of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Jacksonville rate of 32.8%.

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 17% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10.

Court records carry 590 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. The worst year on record was 2012, when filings touched 6.0% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $1,316, 10% below the Jacksonville average of $1,465. The most recent observed rate, 3.0% in 2016, is well off that peak.

Among the 33 mapped neighborhoods of Jacksonville, it ranks #24 by risk, the lower third. Only 28% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Ortega Terrace and The Wilderness. Rent takes 17% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
