What drives eviction risk in Portofino Cove

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Severe burden reaches 15%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

62% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
