Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sunray

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $884, 27% above the Frostproof average. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.7/10. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Polk County average of 45.8%.

Disability prevalence runs 44.5% against 31.5% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 46 filings here across 13 tracked years.

Adults with no health insurance runs 19.4% against 11.3% nationally. The worst year on record was 2015, when 5.6% of renter households were served. In a typical year about 2.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 40% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
