Cape Coral Eviction Risk: Moderate

Against Lee County at 52.2%, 72% of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $42,898, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 1.5/10.

At $1,436 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Cape Coral commands. It sits 0.7 points above the Lee County average of 3.7.

On the national scale it lands near the 49th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 4.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
