San Pablo takes in 6 census tracts of Jacksonville, FL, population 27,859. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.2/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Jacksonville baseline of 32.8%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.6/10. Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.2/10.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3 to 4.2, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Filings are well documented here: 1,553 across 3 observed tracts. Running cool is economic stress, at 2.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,664, 14% above the Jacksonville average of $1,465. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 31.3% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 7.4% in 2016, is well off that peak.
That places it #22 of 33 neighborhoods in Jacksonville. The closest comparables inside the same city are Lauren Oaks and Ortega Hills.
Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $91,983. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
