Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Lehigh Acres

Cost burden runs around two-thirds here against 52.2% across Lee County. Pulling hardest the other way is eviction-process difficulty at 1/10.

Annualized rent equals 41% of average household income of $49,964, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Adults with no health insurance runs 29.4% against 11.3% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Lee County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.7 points. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 21% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

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.
