Norwood Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 6,393 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.8–4.8

Norwood maps to a single census tract in Brent, FL and houses 6,393 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, in the Moderate tier. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 1.6/10.

40% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Brent rate of 34.4%. Court records for this tract carry 276 eviction filings.

The poverty rate is 17%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. 8% 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. The worst year on record was 2006, when filings touched 13.2% of renter households.

Average gross rent is $1,062, 9% below the Brent average of $1,161. The most recent observed rate, 4.4% in 2010, is well off that peak.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.7/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $55,946. 38% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 4.8/10 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.
