College Town Eviction Risk: Moderate , Tallahassee

72% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Leon County average of 46.4%. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

The poverty rate is 47%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Set annual rent against average income of $25,735 and the ratio lands at 49%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

88% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. It sits 1.3 points above the Leon County average of 4.1. At $1,053 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Tallahassee commands.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 677 filings here across 13 tracked years. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.5% against 11.3% nationally. Filings peaked in 2006 at 6.8% of renter households.

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.
