Seminole Park Historic District Eviction Risk: Lower

3 census tracts · pop 9,282 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3–4.8

Seminole Park Historic District takes in 3 census tracts of Fort Myers, FL, population 9,282. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, Lower tier. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.

Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 3 to 4.8. A 1.8-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Severe burden reaches 18%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10. Well under the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength, at 2.5/10. That places it #9 of 16 neighborhoods in Fort Myers.

Rent consumes at least 30% of income for 39% of renter households. At 20% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Portofino Cove and Colonial Country Club. Rent takes 18% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Average gross rent runs $1,596, close to the Fort Myers average.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 3.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
