Greater Woodlawn maps to a single census tract in St. Petersburg, FL, population 3,154. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 3.5/10, Lower tier. Cost burden runs roughly two in three against 33.9% citywide, putting Greater Woodlawn 33.3% over its own city.
The main counterweight is supply constraint, at 1.1/10. The severe-burden share is 25%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
At $1,213 a month, rents sit 27% under what the rest of St. Petersburg commands. The filing record is not thin: 299 evictions logged in this tract.
The worst year on record was 2004, when filings touched 5.7% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10.
The most recent observed rate, 2.8% in 2017, is well off that peak. Among the 42 mapped neighborhoods of St. Petersburg, it ranks #24 by risk, the middle third.
For a like-for-like read, Euclid-St. Paul and Disston Heights score within a fraction of it. Against average income of $75,557, annual rent is only 19%, a wide affordability cushion.
One tract means one number: 3.5/10 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.
