· range 5.4–5.4
Alameda spans 2 census tracts of Tampa, FL, population 4,832. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 5.4/10, in the Moderate tier. 53% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Tampa rate of 33.5%.
Average gross rent is $768, 55% below the Tampa average of $1,701. Severe burden reaches 32%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Set annual rent against average household income of $23,157 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.
The strongest single driver of the headline number is economic stress at 9/10. The poverty rate is 36%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1/10. This is a renter market: 69% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
Filings are well documented here: 880 across 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 16.1% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 6.7% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 70 neighborhoods in Tampa.
For a like-for-like read, Drew Park and Oakridge score within a fraction of it.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
