It sits 0.8 points below the Flagler County average of 3.9. On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Only 16% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $85,592.
