Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Auburndale

24% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Average gross rent is $1,581, 31% above the Auburndale average. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.6/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. The voucher gap is 18.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

It sits 0.9 points below the Polk County average of 3.9. The filing record is not thin: 193 evictions over 16 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2001 at 36.8% of renter households. In a typical year about 11.2% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 14% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Social vulnerability reads 3.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
