Lakewood Ranch Eviction Risk: Lower

The severe-burden share is 37%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 40.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, supply constraint reads 9/10.

On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.1/10. Against the Sarasota County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

At $2,593 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Lakewood Ranch commands. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 16% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. Social vulnerability reads 2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $127,246.

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.
