Wedgewood Eviction Risk: Moderate

2 census tracts · pop 10,538 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 4.8/10 · range 4.4–5.2

Wedgewood spans 2 census tracts of Orlando, FL, population 10,538. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 4.8/10, Moderate tier. Cost burden runs 59% against 34.1% citywide, putting Wedgewood 25.0% over its own city.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. 23% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.

At $1,433 a month, rents sit 18% under what the rest of Orlando commands. Court records carry 2,197 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts.

Filing activity peaked in 2006 at 20.0% of renter households. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 5.3% in 2016, is well off that peak.

That places it #19 of 43 neighborhoods in Orlando. For a like-for-like read, Stonebridge Lakes and Candlewyck score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Its 2 tracts score within 0.8 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $58,582.

63% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
