Altos Verdes Eviction Risk: Moderate

9 census tracts · pop 37,245 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.3/10 · range 4.3–5.4

Altos Verdes is a 9-tract neighborhood of Tampa, FL, population 37,245. The Eviction Risk Score is 5.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 61% against 33.5% citywide, putting Altos Verdes 27.8% over its own city.

34% 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. Set annual rent against average household income of $40,654 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 32%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.6/10.

Average gross rent is $1,281, 25% below the Tampa average of $1,701. Scores across the 9 constituent tracts range from 4.3 to 5.4. A 1.1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

Running hot is economic stress at 7.7/10. Court records carry 4,792 eviction filings across its 5 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 20.0% of renter households.

Among the 70 mapped neighborhoods of Tampa, it ranks #17 by risk, the upper third. Judgments average 6.3% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 5.3 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
