Analysis

What drives eviction risk in West Pensacola

75% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Escambia County average of 47.1%. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.2/10. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $46,250, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.8/10. On the high side, housing-court posture reads 8.8/10.

It sits 1.6 points above the Escambia County average of 4.2. Average gross rent is $1,422, 25% above the West Pensacola average.

The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. That is riskier than roughly 76% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.7 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

48% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
