Riverside Heights Eviction Risk: Lower

The main counterweight is economic stress, at 1/10. Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 144 eviction filings.

9% 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 worst year on record was 2009, when filings touched 10.6% of renter households.

Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 3.9% in 2016, is well off that peak. Among the 70 mapped neighborhoods of Tampa, it ranks #56 by risk, the lower third.

Only 27% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Sunset Beach and Wilhelmina.

Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,688, close to the Tampa average.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $94,398.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 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.
