Dean Park Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 1,659 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Dean Park Historic District maps to a single census tract in Fort Myers, FL, population 1,659. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

66% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. Severe burden reaches 20%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

At $1,962 a month, rents sit 24% over what the rest of Fort Myers commands. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2/10.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Against a Fort Myers baseline of 36.9%, 33% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. That places it #10 of 16 neighborhoods in Fort Myers.

Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $78,654.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
