Windrush Eviction Risk: Lower

2 census tracts · pop 10,747 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 3/10 · range 3–3

Windrush takes in 2 census tracts of Tarpon Springs, FL and houses 10,747 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 3/10, in the Lower tier. Cost burden runs 45% against 32.5% citywide, putting Windrush 12.5% over its own city.

Pulling the other way is eviction-process difficulty, at 1.1/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 1.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 18%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Average gross rent is $1,601, 23% above the Tarpon Springs average of $1,298. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8.2/10.

Court records for this tract carry 147 eviction filings. The worst year on record was 2001, when filings touched 4.7% of renter households. Recent filings have not receded much: 5.4% in 2017 against a 4.7% peak.

Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Tarpon Springs, it ranks #4 by risk, the lower third. At 9% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

For a like-for-like read, North Lake of Tarpon Springs and Union Academy score within a fraction of it. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

With little internal variation, 3/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
