Alpine Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 1,612 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10 · range 5.3–5.3

Alpine maps to a single census tract in Gibsonton, FL, population 1,612. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.3/10, Moderate tier. The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1/10. Average gross rent is $1,031, 26% below the Gibsonton average of $1,386.

Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.5/10. 17% 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 poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. Court records for this tract carry 222 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 13.0% of renter households. Against a Gibsonton baseline of 37.0%, 34% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Recent filings have not receded much: 11.9% in 2016 against a 13.0% peak. For a like-for-like read, Allens and Alavista score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, 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 $53,899.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
