Raintree Village Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 7,602 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3.1/10 · range 3–3.2

Raintree Village is a 2-tract neighborhood of Clearwater, FL, population 7,602. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Against a Clearwater baseline of 37.9%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1/10. 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. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

Court records for this tract carry 58 eviction filings. On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 2.5/10.

Filing activity peaked in 2007 at 4.2% of renter households. At $1,495 a month, rents sit 10% under what the rest of Clearwater commands. The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2017, is well off that peak.

That places it #13 of 14 neighborhoods in Clearwater. Only 25% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

With little internal variation, 3.1/10 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.
