Eastgate maps to a single census tract in Tallahassee, FL and houses 7,261 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Against a Tallahassee baseline of 36.5%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.5/10.
The filing record is not thin: 498 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2013, when filings touched 5.0% of renter households.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2018, is well off that peak. Among the 16 mapped neighborhoods of Tallahassee, it ranks #12 by risk, the lower third.
Against average income of $86,795, annual rent is only 18%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Average gross rent runs $1,283, close to the Tallahassee average.
One tract means one number: 3/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
