Colonialtown South Eviction Risk: Moderate

1 census tracts · pop 2,988 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.3/10 · range 4.3–4.3

Colonialtown South is a one-tract neighborhood of Orlando, FL, population 2,988. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.3/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Orlando baseline of 34.1%, 48% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. The severe-burden share is 23%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the softer side is supply constraint, at 2.2/10.

At $1,402 a month, rents sit 20% under what the rest of Orlando commands. The filing record is not thin: 308 evictions logged in this tract.

The poverty rate is 16%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The worst year on record was 2005, when filings touched 5.5% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

Recent filings have not receded much: 4.0% in 2016 against a 5.5% peak. That places it #24 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando. For a like-for-like read, Dover Shores and Ventura Country Club score within a fraction of it.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 4.3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
