Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1/10. 25% 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. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.8/10.

The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 25.7% of renter households. Average gross rent is $1,566, 9% below the Carrollwood average of $1,715.
The most recent observed rate, 2.0% in 2016, is well off that peak. The closest comparables inside the same city are Carrollwood Village and Andover. Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.2 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $88,896.
30% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
