Lake Maggiore Shores takes in 2 census tracts of St. Petersburg, FL and houses 9,399 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3.1/10, placing it in the Lower tier. Severe burden reaches 60%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.
75% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the St. Petersburg rate of 33.9%. Pulling the other way is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.7/10. Court records carry 1,322 eviction filings across its 2 observed tracts. The worst year on record was 2014, when filings touched 21.5% of renter households.
Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. At $1,856 a month, rents sit 12% over what the rest of St. Petersburg commands.
The most recent observed rate, 7.4% in 2017, is well off that peak. That places it #31 of 42 neighborhoods in St. Petersburg.
Only 22% 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. For a like-for-like read, Grovemont and Bay Breeze Cove score within a fraction of it.
Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. The 2 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes.
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.
