CDC Social Vulnerability Index
SVI percentile: 39
CDC/ATSDR 2022. Higher = more vulnerable. National percentile across 84k tracts.
The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10. Average gross rent is $973, 28% below the Ocala average.
Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Against the Marion County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.9 points.
On the national scale it lands near the 22nd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 20% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 15% of average household income of $80,368, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the FL average is 4.1, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
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.
