Alcove Park spans 2 census tracts of Clearwater, FL and houses 10,665 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.7/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Clearwater baseline of 37.9%, 50% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The severe-burden share is 30%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10.
The poverty rate is 27%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool is supply constraint, at 2.3/10.
Filings are well documented here: 1,843 across 2 observed tracts. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.
Average gross rent is $1,444, 13% below the Clearwater average of $1,658. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 10.4% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 3.5% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #1 of 14 neighborhoods in Clearwater. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.1/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
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.
