Colonialtown Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,718 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Colonialtown maps to a single census tract in Orlando, FL, population 3,718. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.

On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.6/10. The severe-burden share is 15%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. The filing record is not thin: 95 evictions logged in this tract.

Against a Orlando baseline of 34.1%, 29% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. Filing activity peaked in 2005 at 2.6% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

At $1,937 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of Orlando commands. The most recent observed rate, 0.8% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #35 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando.

Against average income of $121,719, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 37% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
