Jacksonville Eviction Risk: Moderate

The poverty rate is 53%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Average gross rent is $943, 36% below the Jacksonville average.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. 75% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $32,860, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Disability prevalence runs 48.0% against 31.5% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 27.6% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 1.1 points above the Duval County average of 3.7. The filing record is not thin: 922 evictions over 10 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 10.4% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 8.2% of renter households face a filing.

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