Washington Shores Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 7,085 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 5.1/10 · range 4.9–5.4

Washington Shores takes in 2 census tracts of Orlando, FL and houses 7,085 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 5.1/10, Moderate tier. Against a Orlando baseline of 34.1%, 59% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 26%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. At $1,251 a month, rents sit 28% under what the rest of Orlando commands.

Well under the midpoint is supply constraint, at 1.8/10. The poverty rate is 19%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Filings are well documented here: 2,081 across 2 observed tracts.

The worst year on record was 2007, when filings touched 23.1% of renter households. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.

The most recent observed rate, 9.8% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #15 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando.

Social vulnerability runs high at 7.9/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 2 tracts score within 0.5 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.

With little internal variation, 5.1/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
