Vick Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 3,283 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.9/10 · range 4.9–4.9

Vick is a one-tract neighborhood of Tampa, FL, population 3,283. Scored across those inputs it reaches 4.9/10, placing it in the Moderate tier. Against a Tampa baseline of 33.5%, 63% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 29%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.8/10. At $1,341 a month, rents sit 21% under what the rest of Tampa commands. Court records for this tract carry 365 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 14.2% of renter households. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. Among the 70 mapped neighborhoods of Tampa, it ranks #28 by risk, the middle third.

Judgments average 5.6% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Alta Vista and North Tampa Heights score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $52,821. 31% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.9/10 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.
