Lehigh Acres Eviction Risk: Moderate

The main counterweight is eviction-process difficulty at 1/10. 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 27%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 18.3% against 11.3% nationally.

Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 7.1/10. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,531, close to the Lehigh Acres average. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $73,958.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
