The Lodges takes in 3 census tracts of Pinellas Park, FL, population 14,435. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 4.2/10, in the Moderate tier. Against a Pinellas Park baseline of 35.9%, 54% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
The clearest offset is eviction-process difficulty, at 1/10. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 3.2 to 5.4, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
21% 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 1.7/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10.
At $1,317 a month, rents sit 19% under what the rest of Pinellas Park commands. Court records carry 1,933 eviction filings across its 3 observed tracts.
Filing activity peaked in 2006 at 23.0% of renter households. The most recent observed rate, 3.2% in 2017, is well off that peak. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Pinellas Park, it ranks #5 by risk, the lower third.
At 27% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Millbrooke Ranch and Hidden Creek score within a fraction of it.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.2 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
