Northeast Park Eviction Risk: Lower

1 census tracts · pop 5,890 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Northeast Park maps to a single census tract in St. Petersburg, FL, population 5,890. Scored across those inputs it reaches 3/10, placing it in the Lower tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well above the St. Petersburg rate of 33.9%.

The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 28%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Average gross rent is $2,134, 28% above the St. Petersburg average of $1,663.

Well under the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure, at 1.5/10. Court records for this tract carry 25 eviction filings.

Filing activity peaked in 2016 at 1.5% of renter households. Running cool is eviction-process difficulty, at 3/10. The most recent observed rate, 0.4% in 2017, is well off that peak.

Among the 42 mapped neighborhoods of St. Petersburg, it ranks #32 by risk, the lower third. At 10% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, Bay Breeze Cove and Euclid Heights score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 3%, 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.
