Lake Nona maps to a single census tract in Orlando, FL and houses 19,400 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 47% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the Orlando rate of 34.1%.
Severe burden reaches 32%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. At $2,149 a month, rents sit 23% over what the rest of Orlando commands.
The filing record is not thin: 108 evictions logged in this tract. The worst year on record was 2016, when filings touched 3.0% of renter households.
Well under the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. That places it #35 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando.
Judgments average 5.9% of renter households a year, the share of filings that actually convert to an order. For a like-for-like read, Lancaster Park and Lake Eola Heights score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $113,702.
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.
