Capitano is a one-tract neighborhood of Tampa, FL and houses 4,669 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 5.4/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. 61% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Tampa rate of 33.5%.
Annualized rent equals 47% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 26%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.
The filing record is not thin: 590 evictions logged in this tract. At $1,447 a month, rents sit 15% under what the rest of Tampa commands. Filing activity peaked in 2015 at 10.5% of renter households.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. Recent filings have not receded much: 9.8% in 2016 against a 10.5% peak. Among the 70 mapped neighborhoods of Tampa, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 5.4/10 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.
