Thornton Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,682 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.5/10 · range 3.5–3.5

Thornton Park maps to a single census tract in Orlando, FL, population 3,682. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.5/10, placing it in the Lower tier. The severe-burden share is 26%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, above the Orlando rate of 34.1%. At $2,094 a month, rents sit 20% over what the rest of Orlando commands.

Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.8/10. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

That places it #30 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando. For a like-for-like read, Central Business District and Greenwood score within a fraction of it.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $95,333. 65% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

One tract means one number: 3.5/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
