Dunedin Isles Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 3,978 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Dunedin Isles is a one-tract neighborhood of Dunedin, FL and houses 3,978 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. 59% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Dunedin rate of 34.6%.

The severe-burden share is 34%. 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 economic stress, at 1.2/10.

On the softer side is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.3/10. Average gross rent is $2,133, 27% above the Dunedin average of $1,675.

On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10. Court records for this tract carry 167 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2010, when filings touched 5.8% of renter households.

Recent filings have not receded much: 4.3% in 2017 against a 5.8% peak. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Dunedin, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third.

At 14% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Spanish Pines and Harbor View score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

One tract means one number: 3/10 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.
